Outdated internet appliance generates strange error message #758

The internet appliance, outdated since v2.0, is still in this registry and therefore installable. Using the internet appliance shows the error message Parameter 'type' expects a netdev backend type, see https://gns3.com/community/featured/internet-appliance-error-paramet.

The reason for this message is, that the Ubuntu qemu doesn't support the netdev backend 'vde'. Only for Ubuntu Trusty/14.04 the “Qemu backport” https://launchpad.net/~gns3/+archive/ubuntu/qemu contains a qemu, that supports vde. Besides that the newer GNS3-VMs don't install the vde2 package.

Therefore I suggest to delete the internet.gns3a appliance.
