Can we just drop dependency from qemu-system-gui (and other modules) to
qemu-system-any|qemu-system-x86|etc?  With the new apt preferring
packages from the same build, additional versioned
depends/breaks/whatever isn't that important anymore.  These days, when
you tell apt to upgrade just one qemu-related package, you'll get all
qemu-related packages upgraded in one go.

This way, installing just qemu-system-gui wont bring us any useful qemu
binary, - just like installing zlib1g wont bring any (de)compression
utility.

Christian, you invested a lot of time to this issue, -- I'd say it can
be applied with much better effect elsewhere.. :)
