Package: qemu
Version: 0.9.1-1
Severity: critical
Tags: patch
Justification: breaks unrelated packages

The following code prompts the user into running these commands (or otherwise
qemu won't start):

osdep.c:                            "umount /dev/shm\n"
osdep.c:                            "mount -t tmpfs -o size=%dm none 
/dev/shm\n",

but when run, they get rid of existing files in that directory, which may result
in breakage somewhere else (in my case, resolvconf, but I assume it can break
other things):

$ file /etc/resolvconf/run
/etc/resolvconf/run: broken symbolic link to `/dev/shm/resolvconf'

A simple solution would be:

-                            "umount /dev/shm\n"
-                            "mount -t tmpfs -o size=%dm none /dev/shm\n",
+                            "mount -o remount,size=%dm /dev/shm\n",
