Public bug reported: There is currently no way to install just enough qemu to have kvm work. On x86 you can install qemu-kvm, but even on the other architectures where this is built (e.g. armhf) it depends on qemu-system-x86. Or you can install qemu-system but that installs way more than you need.
Quick consensus seemed to be that qemu-kvm should depend on the appropriate qemu-system-$ARCH. ** Affects: qemu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389897 Title: no way to install "enough qemu for kvm" in a cross platform way To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1389897/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
