Comment 38 for bug 723871

Uncompress regular Natty qemu-kvm package :-

qemu-kvm_0.14.0+noroms-0ubuntu4.diff.gz
qemu-kvm_0.14.0+noroms-0ubuntu4.dsc
qemu-kvm_0.14.0+noroms.orig.tar.gz

# dpkg-source -x qemu-kvm_0.14.0+noroms-0ubuntu4.dsc
# cd qemu-kvm_0.14.0+noroms-0ubuntu4

Edit debian/rules and comment following line ( per Serge Hallyn)

# $(MAKE) -f debian/rules unpatch

to get patching to work !!

That's a reason why hack "spice-qxl-locking-fix-for-qemu-kvm.patch" didn't work originally.

Change ./configure part of debian/rules adding "--enable-spice" :-

config-host.mak: $(QUILT_STAMPFN)
        dh_testdir
        ./configure \
            --target-list="x86_64-softmmu i386-softmmu x86_64-linux-user i386-linux-user" \
            --prefix=/usr \
            --interp-prefix=/etc/qemu-binfmt/%M \
            --disable-blobs \
            --disable-strip \
            --enable-spice \
            $(conf_arch)
Save

Edit debian/patches/series:-

larger_default_ram_size.patch
Detect-and-use-GCC-atomic-builtins-for-locking.patch
# spice-qxl-locking-fix-for-qemu-kvm.patch
0001-qxl-spice-display-move-pipe-to-ssd.patch
0002-qxl-implement-get_command-in-vga-mode-without-locks.patch
0003-qxl-spice-remove-qemu_mutex_-un-lock_iothread-around.patch
0004-hw-qxl-render-drop-cursor-locks-replace-with-pipe.patch
