[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#1134873: qemu-system does not exist on 32bit hosts anymore, but libvirtd depends on it

Package: libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu
Version: 12.2.0-1
Severity: serious

Starting with version 11.0 (currently in sid), upstream qemu dropped
support for 32bit hosts entirely.  In particular, there's no
qemu-system-* packages on 32bit systems (i386, armhf, etc) anymore.
But libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu package depends on qemu-system, which
makes qemu being unable to migrate to testing.

Please drop dependency on qemu-system (and qemu-utils too, if any) on
32bit hosts.

Thanks,

/mjt
