[Bug 782973] [NEW] virtfs isn't enabled

[Ryota Ozaki]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

kvm command fails with the below  message when I try to use virtfs:

  kvm -kernel /boot/System.map-2.6.38-8-generic -initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-8-generic -virtfs local,path=./natty_root,mount_tag=hoge,security_model=none       
  kvm: -virtfs local,path=./natty_root,mount_tag=hoge,security_model=none: there is no option group "virtfs"
  virtfs is not supported by this qemu build.

To enable virtfs, libattr1-dev package is required. The package should
be listed in build dependency.
