Bug Description

Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

If I can't access qemu proper anymore whats the use of having kqemu-* still available? Many users don't have VT enabled processors - having qemu proper and kqemu was a very good method of emulating hosts using the very popular qemu system. Please bring this back!
