As I mentioned on Matrix, PackageKit uses the old solver of APT still as
the new one is only enabled for the APT CLI tools.

So in this bug we are installing virt-manager and the chain is

virt-manager Recommends libvirt-daemon-system
libvirt-daemon-system Depends libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu
libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu Depends qemu-kvm | qemu-system

You need to understand that the last line makes it try to install -hwe
first, which it fails to do and recognizes the conflict and then tries
to resolve that.

When *you* try to install *libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu* directly, it is
forced to install it, and when it resolves the conflict of "libvirt-
daemon-driver-qemu vs qemu-system-x86-hwe" it will try to install "qemu-
system-x86" instead and then all conflicts are resolved.

In this particular case however it has an "easier" solution: Leaving the
Recommends unsatisfied.
