It's worth noting that the current KVM package (upstream v16) in feisty
is based on qemu 0.9.0, and having qemu be an older version is going to
cause some significant disk image incompatibilities between the two
packages, resulting in some whinging and bug reports.

As one example, the new qcow2 disk format is required in the current KVM
to support vm snapshots -- yet the qemu-img utility in the current qemu
package is incapable of creating a qcow2 file.  And if a qcow2 file is
created for use with kvm, it will be unusable with the current 0.8.2
version of qemu.

On the other hand, the debian package is currently in experimental.

Overall, I think a UVFe for this is a good idea.
