2018-10-17 09:08:03 Christian Ehrhardt  description == Comment: #0 - Christian Borntraeger - 2018-10-08 07:14:51 == ---Problem Description--- found on cosmic beta: # dpkg -l | grep qemu ii qemu-block-extra:s390x 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x extra block backend modules for qemu-system and qemu-utils ii qemu-kvm 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU Full virtualization on x86 hardware ii qemu-system-common 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU full system emulation binaries (common files) ii qemu-system-s390x 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU full system emulation binaries (s390x) ii qemu-utils 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU utilities When installing qemu-kvm and running without -nographic I get the following error: # qemu-system-s390x -enable-kvm Could not read keymap file: 'en-us' When I use -nographic everything is fine. So it seems that the qemu-kvm package has some missing dependencies (or misses some files). [Impact] * Debian has split some common files like icons, keymaps, base man&doc pages (e.g. of interfaces), trace event defintion into an extra package called "qemu-system-data". The ubuntu-only package qemu-system-s390x needs to follow that split. * The impact of missing that isn't huge, you'll miss key maps or not find docs, but it is easy to resolve and feels wrong to have the default experience (e.g. calling it with no arguments) to report an error. * Fix is "just" adding the right dependency to the qemu-system-s390x package. [Test Case] * on s390x, install qemu-system-s390x * Before the fix this would not pull qemu-system-data, for testing make sure this isn't by accident installed by another dependency or you won't be able to reproduce this issue. * run it $ qemu-system-s390x Could not read keymap file: 'en-us' [Regression Potential] * The change is to the s390x package only and only an extra dependency. So if anything it will consume slightly more disk space by pulling things in, but since those were formerly part of qemu-common which is pulled in still that is fine. [Other Info] * Mostly this issue was hidden for various reasons - dependencies often pull in qemu-system which pulls qemu-system- <arch*> and the others pull qemu-system-data correctly. - Furthermore unless you need non en-us input, inist on the icon or need the api doc you'll run in no issues - for example all the tests we ran on cosmic were happy == Comment: #0 - Christian Borntraeger - 2018-10-08 07:14:51 == ---Problem Description--- found on cosmic beta: # dpkg -l | grep qemu ii qemu-block-extra:s390x 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x extra block backend modules for qemu-system and qemu-utils ii qemu-kvm 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU Full virtualization on x86 hardware ii qemu-system-common 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU full system emulation binaries (common files) ii qemu-system-s390x 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU full system emulation binaries (s390x) ii qemu-utils 1:2.12+dfsg-3ubuntu7 s390x QEMU utilities When installing qemu-kvm and running without -nographic I get the following error: # qemu-system-s390x -enable-kvm Could not read keymap file: 'en-us' When I use -nographic everything is fine.
