Comment 1 for bug 117901

Thank you for reporting this bug, but I'm marking it as rejected: the kvm package does not actually depend on qemu - it is perfectly usable without qemu as long as you already have some VM images.

Furthermore, the kvm package already recommends qemu, which is the strongest non-essential dependency possible:
sudo apt-get -s install kvm
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
  bridge-utils
Suggested packages:
  debootstrap etherboot
Recommended packages:
  kvm-source qemu vde2
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  bridge-utils kvm
