The package names switched some years ago IIRC. In synaptic, please
look for the following package names.  This should be enough to use
KVM with command line utils. You can install them step by step.

qemu-utils
qemu-block-extra
ibverbs-providers
libvirt-daemon
virtinst
qemu-system-x86
libxml2-utils
netcat-openbsd
libvirt-clients-qemu
iptables
libvirt-daemon-system
parted
mdevctl
dnsmasq-base
dns-root-data


Finally, a useful GUI tool is:
virt-manager


To avoid strange effects involving missing permissions, you might
want to add your usual user to the groups ``kvm'' and ``libvirt''.
