Package: qemu-system-x86 Version: 1:2.12+dfsg-3+b1 Severity: important What the Subject says: qemu-system-i386: Display 'sdl' is not available.
When I start qemu, I get: WARNING: Image format was not specified for 'root.squashfs' and probing guessed raw. Automatically detecting the format is dangerous for raw images, write operations on block 0 will be restricted. Specify the 'raw' format explicitly to remove the restrictions. VNC server running on 127.0.0.1:5900 It used to display a window in which I could directly interact. This is a severe regression, making it unusable without extra tools. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/lksh Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages qemu-system-x86 depends on: ii ipxe-qemu 1.0.0+git-20161027.b991c67-1 ii libaio1 0.3.111-1 ii libasound2 1.1.7-1 ii libbluetooth3 5.50-1 ii libbrlapi0.6 5.6-7 ii libc6 2.27-8 ii libcacard0 1:2.5.3-1 ii libcapstone3 3.0.5-3 ii libfdt1 1.4.7-3 ii libgcc1 1:8.2.0-9 ii libglib2.0-0 2.58.1-2 ii libgnutls30 3.5.19-1+b1 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.2-2+b1 ii libncursesw6 6.1+20181013-1 ii libnettle6 3.4-1 ii libnuma1 2.0.12-1 ii libpixman-1-0 0.34.0-2 ii libpng16-16 1.6.34-2 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.27~rc8-1 ii libseccomp2 2.3.3-3 ii libspice-server1 0.14.0-1.2 ii libtinfo6 6.1+20181013-1 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.22-2 ii libusbredirparser1 0.8.0-1 ii libvdeplug2 2.3.2+r586-2.1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.7-1 ii libxendevicemodel1 4.11.1~pre.20180911.5acdd26fdc+dfsg-5 ii libxenevtchn1 4.11.1~pre.20180911.5acdd26fdc+dfsg-5 ii libxenforeignmemory1 4.11.1~pre.20180911.5acdd26fdc+dfsg-5 ii libxengnttab1 4.11.1~pre.20180911.5acdd26fdc+dfsg-5 ii libxenmisc4.11 4.11.1~pre.20180911.5acdd26fdc+dfsg-5 ii libxenstore3.0 4.11.1~pre.20180911.5acdd26fdc+dfsg-5 ii qemu-system-common 1:2.12+dfsg-3+b1 ii qemu-system-data 1:2.12+dfsg-3 ii seabios 1.11.1-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 Versions of packages qemu-system-x86 recommends: pn qemu-system-gui <none> ii qemu-utils 1:2.12+dfsg-3+b1 Versions of packages qemu-system-x86 suggests: pn ovmf <none> pn qemu-block-extra <none> pn samba <none> pn sgabios <none> pn vde2 <none> -- no debconf information
