Binaries installed via ppa:serge-hallyn/spice still are affected by bug 723871

[Boris Derzhavets]

Packages from "ppa:serge-hallyn/spice" have been installed on Ubuntu 11.04 Beta 2. Bug with " -vga qxl" is still in place :-

Option "-vga std" works fine as 723871

I'm guessing this bug report is obsolete -- in any case the main upstream QEMU project is the wrong place to file bugs against packages from random PPAs.
