Package: qemu-system

Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Newest qemu-system absorbs old qemu-kvm functionality.
However, script to launch kvm is /usr/bin/kvm/kvm, where it is looked in 
/usr/bin/kvm, as shown below.

Yes it's a bug indeed.  Fixed in git already, I didn't even notice it
but I changed the way this wrapper is installed.  I'm uploading a new
version anyway, so it will be fixed in a few minutes.

But I question Severity+Justirication - more or less just curious
actually, why do you think this renders package unusable?  The
file in question (/usr/bin/kvm wrongly packaged as /usr/bin/kvm/kvm)
is a compatibility script to simplify moving from old qemu-kvm to
new qemu-system.  First thing it says is just that -- to move to
qemu-system-x86_64.  Why do you think the lack (or improper install)
of this file renders package unusable?  It is not the binary you
should be using, the right binary is qemu-system-x86_64...

Thanks,

/mjt
