kvm_stat utility has been in qemu-kvm package in debian, but it was never part of qemu packages. Because else it'll conflict with qemu-kvm which is not a good idea. This is a reason I haven't actually added it in the first place - I didnt' want to conflict with qemu-kvm, so the two packages can coexist with each other. That's also why I untagging it as "patch" -- the supplied one line is not sufficient, we should add proper replaces too, I'll think about this. There's also no manpage for kvm_stat - adding it will bring us one more lintian warning. Can you provide a minimal manpage for this command please? :) And besides, why do you think it belongs to qemu-utils? It seems like it belongs to qemu-system-common instead, -- a helper packge for all qemu-system targets, where kvm can actually be used. qemu-utils is a bit more generic than for qemu-system, I think.
