qemu (2.0.0+dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=low

   qemu-system-* packages does not provide /usr/bin/qemu alternative
   anymore, and all various alternatives will be unregistered at new
   individual qemu-system packages install.  This is because different
   architectures are not really alternatives, and never has been.
   Historically, qemu emulated just one architecture, so the name "qemu"
   was used for the binary.  However when more architectures were added,
   the old name "qemu" was used as an alternative, pointing to one of
   the emulators.  Upstream does not use the name "qemu" for binaries
   for a long time.  If you have scripts using the old name "qemu"
   please update them to use the right qemu-system-* binary.
