Maybe a qemu-system-x86-gui metapackage that depends on qemu-system-x86 and qemu-system-gui? qemu-system-gui needs to depend on at least one of the qemu-system-* packages because without that it's a useless package.

I already had qemu-system-x86 installed, and had been using it before with the VNC display, but I was doing a livestream and needed to have a real GUI display so I installed the -gui package. Enough time between the installs led to the mismatch. Unfortunately I didn't note down what version I had before. Thanks, Iain.
