Title:
  Dependencies not being flagged for install upon installing a new
  package

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  For example, the Ubuntu Software Center and 'apt' tool within the
  Terminal do not recognize and flag the packages 'qemu' "qemu-kvm" and
  'libvirt-bin' for install upon installation of the gnome-boxes
  package.

  Gnome-boxes requires these packages to virtualize, and should be
  flagged and installed as part of the default.
