Package: qemubuilder
Version: 0.85
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

I was trying to use qemubuilder to build some armhf packages on amd64.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I ran qemubuilder and it told me:

E: No KERNEL_IMAGE defined in pbuilderrc
E: qemu exited unexpectedly: 256

Then I looked in the man page for information that would help me set
KERNEL_IMAGE to a useful value.


   * What was the outcome of this action?

I saw this:

       KERNEL_IMAGE=vmlinuz
              Linux kernel to use.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Some kind of information about what the "vmlinuz" value is meant to
refer to (is it a local file, name of a package, file in the target
file system, etc.), why I need to set this option and how the value
will be used.
