Suggested fix: Install the packages qemu-system-common and qemu-system-gui if available. Ensure you are using the latest packages.

With the percentage of people having problems with qemu packages, I might have to bundle a build of qemu along with the scripts. The idea is to create an AppImage later on to avoid platform specific problems. Till then all I can request is to research a bit about the problems that frequently occur with qemu on your distribution.
