Package: qemu
Version: 1:2.10.0+dfsg-2
Followup-For: Bug #879193
I've encountered similar mouse problems with dfsg-2 that were not
present with dfsg-1, but i'm currently not able to reproduce it in a
deterministic way.
Here is my qemu's setup, using Windows 10 as guest OS.

With this configuration, in dfsg-1 the mouse pointer were able to escape
the guest window without pressing CTRL-ALT. Now with dfsg-2 that mostly
works but on two occasions I've found that the mouse could not escape,
perhaps as Stéphane reported, even pressing CTRL-ALT. But for me there
was a strange exception: i was able to escape only from one side of the
window. The first time from the top, the second time from the left.
That happened regardless of the CTRL-ALT pressing.
However if I replace "usb-tablet" with "usb-mouse", the mouse seems to
work correctly, with grabbing controlled only by CTRL-ALT.
I've not tested with the integrated PS/2 mouse.
Stéphane, what's your qemu's commandline?
Cesare.
