I was having this same issue with qemu-ppc both the 2.0 version and a handbuilt 2.1.0 version running on 14.04. By installing these packages the error disappeared:
acl libaio1 libasound2 libasound2-data libasyncns0 libbrlapi0.6 libcaca0 libflac8 libogg0 libpulse0 librados2 librbd1 libsdl1.2debian libseccomp2 libsndfile1 libspice-server1 libvorbis0a libvorbisenc2 libxen-4.4 libxenstore3.0 libyajl2 sharutils I'm not sure which one of the libvorbis/flac/ogg/asound packages fixed it, but they were key for the segfault to go away. I noticed based on the post from jrr that packages qemu-system-common, qemu-keymaps, qemu-system-ppc, qemu-user-static pulled in those other packages as deps and tried just installing the packages along with qemu- user. Just wan'ted to add that to this post. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1349941 Title: qemu-ppc segfault on simple hello world To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1349941/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
