Package: libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu
Version: 6.0.0-6
In our latest Cockpit CI image refresh of debian-testing [1], all libvirt/QEMU
tests are broken:
| > warning: error: failed to get emulator capabilities
| error: invalid argument: unable to find any emulator to serve 'x86_64'
architecture
| ERROR Host does not support any virtualization options
libvirt version did not change (6.0.0-6), but QEMU updated from 4.2 to 5.0.
libvirt does not seem to get along with this:

Note that this is not specific to --pxe, it's just the absolutely cheapest way
that I know of to create a domain and start QEMU.
This may be related to a regression in QEMU itself:
| $ admin@debian:~$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic
| Could not allocate dynamic translator buffer
I filed that as https://bugs.debian.org/961574
Thanks,
