qemu-system-x86_64: not found

[xkill]

Hi,

The new version of Debian requires qemu-system-x86 package to provide the binary: qemu-system-x86_64

I got the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pexpect/spawnbase.py", line 150, in read_nonblocking
    s = os.read(self.child_fd, size)
OSError: [Errno 5] Input/output error

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hello,

qemu package installed in current Dockerfiles is a metapackage that should install all qemu related stuff (incl. qemu-system-x86). I tried to do clean rebuild (as mentioned in README), but I can't reproduce the error you mentioned.

But - it is probably good idea to remove qemu metapackage (the description of new debian versions of qemu metapackage says that we should rather use individual qemu-system-* packages - like qemu-system-x86 you added in your pull request).

Would you rather consider (and test if everything works that way on your side) to change your pull request that the Dockerfile installs qemu-system metapackage that installs qemu-system-* for all architectures (or as for now supported architectures by LiSa - packages qemu-system-x86, qemu-system-arm, qemu-system-mips)?
