Sorry. My mistake. If I run `#apt-get install qemu-kvm` I now see:

Just dumb luck (& not a little dumb in general) on my part: I'd seen all
other distros updating something that obviously had impacted something
in `/etc/` but for the last five days this hadn't been the case on Precise.

Extremely sorry to waste your time. Apologies.

Cheers,

  Phil...
