https://packages.debian.org/sid/qemu-system-x86 specifies the seabios
dependency as:
dep: seabios (>= 1.7.5~)

This has also been inherited into the 2.7 jessie-backport build (as
seabios 1.9 does not have a jessie-backport), so now systems using
jessie-backports are affected by this bug.

Please can the dependency be fixed (it appears to be in place in the
git repo but not in the built packages). We also now need a backport of
seabios 1.9 and a new backport of qemu 2.7 with the updated dependency
to ensure that qemu 2.7 from jessie-backports must always install
seabios 1.9 also from jessie-backports.
