Bug Description

Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

Package: kvm
Depends: qemu-kvm

Package: qemu-kvm
Conflicts: kvm, kvm-data, qemu

Never do this. Transitional packages need to be installable; if you don't want it to be installable, you need to stop building it.

This bug was fixed in the package qemu-kvm - 0.11.0-0ubuntu6

---------------
qemu-kvm (0.11.0-0ubuntu6) karmic; urgency=low

  * debian/control: Version the conflicts/replaces with qemu and kvm so that
    the transitional packages are actually installable (LP: #455114)
