Package: qemu
Version: 0.9.1-1
Severity: minor

the naming of certain block devices has changed in the newer qemu
releases (for example, cdrom has been changed to ide1-cd0).  the 
documentation included in the qemu package needs to be updated to reflect 
this change.

a patch is included for "change cdrom" usage, but there are probably other 
cases in the docs that need to be updated as well.
