[Bug 1389897] [NEW] no way to install "enough qemu for kvm" in a cross platform way

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Public bug reported:

There is currently no way to install just enough qemu to have kvm work.
On x86 you can install qemu-kvm, but even on the other architectures
where this is built (e.g. armhf) it depends on qemu-system-x86.  Or you
can install qemu-system but that installs way more than you need.

Quick consensus seemed to be that qemu-kvm should depend on the
appropriate qemu-system-$ARCH.

** Affects: qemu (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
