Public bug reported: Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
qemu-kvm FTBFS on powerpc and ia64 in lucid. This is a combination of issues, as follows: 1: kvm support for newer powerpc is *very* new in the kernel, and the lucid kernels don't have the necessary patches (which would be too invasive to integrate). Simply disabling kvm for qemu builds is recommended by upstream: http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-de...@nongnu.org/msg23996.html 2: ia64 host support is *extremely* new (first appearance upstream in March), and so nothing works at all on ia64 hosts. Long-term, the correct fix is to have the necessary kernel/kvm/qemu patches land, and enable everything everywhere. For lucid, this simply cannot happen, but ia64 builds can be dropped and powerpc builds done without kvm support, which improves supportability. ** Affects: qemu-kvm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- qemu-kvm FTBFS on powerpc and ia64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568904 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in ubuntu. -- 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
