Actually it might not be as good as it sounds.

qemu-kvm:i386 1.1.2:
 Installed-Size: 4756
 Depends: seabios, vgabios, ipxe

qemu-system:i386 1.3.0:
 Installed-Size: 89232
 Depends: seabios, vgabios, ipxe, openbios-ppc, openbios-sparc, openhackware, 
libxen, ...


Just the installed size -- 4756 vs 89232 -- is already
quite telling, that's about 20 times difference...

Oh well.

And I'm still not sure if it's a good idea to split
qemu-system into multiple packages.

Thanks,
