[Bug 835818] Re: Can't boot qemu w/o kvm (no boot=on param, upstream patch)

[Serge Hallyn]

Thanks for taking the time to submit this bug.

However, if I understand right, lucid's qemu *does* support 'boot=on'
since it is qemu-kvm.  The libvirt source has changed a great deal since
the version in lucid, and would need to be re-written.  Finally, as
lucid is LTS, I'd be afraid of doing this in a way that would change
behavior for some existing users.

Please feel free to attach a patch and rationale that there is no chance
of regression (to change my or someone else mind), but given that this
is for use with a non-standard qemu, I'm going to mark this wontfix.

Is there something in particular you need from that version of qemu?  If
there's a bug perhaps we can fix that in the qemu-kvm package?

It should also be possible for you to use a backport of maverick's
libvirt to natty.

** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
