qemu-kvm 0.11.0~rc1-0ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

qemu-kvm (0.11.0~rc1-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  [ Initial packaging of qemu-kvm ]
  * This package is a complex merger of the traditional Debian and Ubuntu
    qemu and kvm packages.  Upstream is in the process of integrating all
    kvm-specific code into the qemu project, which is being delivered as a
    new package called qemu-kvm.  This should provide all of the userspace
    required to use kvm.  The kvm project, instead, is going to focus on the
    kvm kernel module.  The qemu-kvm project will deliver a stable, maintained
    userspace.  This qemu-kvm package replaces both qemu and kvm in Ubuntu.
  * debian/changelog.kvm, debian/changelog.qemu: keep these two files around,
    as these provide tremendous history and logging about the packaging
  * debian/control, debian/10-kvm.fdi, debian/install,
    debian/org.freedesktop.hal.kvm.policy: drop hal as it's being deprecated
  * debian/reportbug-hook.sh: dropped; use 'ubuntu-bug qemu-kvm' now
  * debian/control:
    - lower the debhelper dependency, should make backports
    easier, newer builds will use the newer debhelper for udev stuff, older
    versions just won't
    - drop autotools-dev build dependency, no longer needed
    - add armel to build architecture
    - description updated
    - drop the qemu package (for now)
    - drop the Pre-depends on adduser
  * debian/rules:
    - drop double call of dh_installdeb
    - install each of the changelogs
    - drop zcat of network bins; these have been no-ops for us for a long
      time, kept around to minimize diff with Debian
    - move common i386 and x86_64 code to common location
    - drop pxe rom's, as these are provided by kvm-pxe
    - establish some links to help with the merger of kvm/qemu
    - move as much as possible to the debhelper install file
    - clean up kvm/bios/acpi-ssdt.aml
  * debian/patches: all patches dropped, syncing with upstream
  * debian/doc: new file, html documentation to be installed
