Package: qemu-kvm
Version: 1.1.2+dfsg-6+deb7u6
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

As the subject line says, if a qemu process (kvm or qemu-system-*) is
interrupted by a signal (say, by pressing ^C), it still exits with a
status of 0.

Example:

  $ kvm
  ^Cqemu: terminating on signal 2
  $ echo $?
  0

This is extremely annoying when trying to write robust scripts that
invoke qemu - there is no way for the script to know whether the guest
system powered off successfully, or the process was interrupted for some
reason.

Benjamin
