Package: libvirt-daemon Version: 1.2.21-1 Severity: important Following the upgrade from jessie to sid, I am unable to start a mips (malta machine), powerpc (g3beige machine) or sparc (sun4u machine) VM. I get the following error message:
error: unsupported configuration: IDE controllers are unsupported for this QEMU binary or machine type These machines do have an IDE controller that was supported in previous libvirt versions. And for some of them it is necessary to use it as the bootloader doesn't support scsi or virtio. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libvirt-daemon depends on: ii libapparmor1 2.10-2+b1 ii libaudit1 1:2.4.4-4 ii libavahi-client3 0.6.32~rc+dfsg-1 ii libavahi-common3 0.6.32~rc+dfsg-1 ii libblkid1 2.27.1-1 ii libc6 2.19-22 ii libcap-ng0 0.7.7-1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.10.2-1 ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.110-1 ii libfuse2 2.9.4-1 ii libgnutls-deb0-28 3.3.18-1 ii libnetcf1 1:0.2.8-1 ii libnl-3-200 3.2.26-1 ii libnl-route-3-200 3.2.26-1 ii libnuma1 2.0.10-1 ii libparted2 3.2-10 ii libpcap0.8 1.7.4-1 ii libpciaccess0 0.13.4-1 ii librados2 0.80.10-2 ii librbd1 0.80.10-2 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.26.dfsg1-14+b1 ii libselinux1 2.3-2+b1 ii libssh2-1 1.5.0-2+b1 ii libsystemd0 227-3 ii libudev1 227-3 ii libvirt0 1.2.21-1 ii libxen-4.4 4.4.1-9+deb8u1 ii libxenstore3.0 4.6.0-1 ii libxml2 2.9.2+zdfsg1-4 ii libyajl2 2.1.0-2 Versions of packages libvirt-daemon recommends: ii libxml2-utils 2.9.2+zdfsg1-4 ii netcat-openbsd 1.105-7 pn qemu-kvm | qemu <none> Versions of packages libvirt-daemon suggests: ii libvirt-daemon-system 1.2.21-1 -- no debconf information
