I am unsure if my desktop PC Debian 12 Kernel: 6.1.0-27-amd64 + KDE usage requires qemu packages, though these are quite often updated:
$ apt list virt-manager boxesapt-mark showauto | grep qemu$ apt-mark showmanual | grep qemu$ aptitude why qemu-utils$ aptitude why qemu-system$ sudo apt autoremove$ apt-get remove -s qemu-system # simulate removal of only manually installed package:Can you please answer my question and tell me what i am seeing and what may be done?
I have installed a virtualization (like virt-manager, boxes?) before but I am no longer using it, nor having it installed:qemu-block-extra: Provides additional block device drivers for QEMU.
qemu-system: The main QEMU system emulator.
qemu-system-arm: QEMU system emulator for ARM architectures.
qemu-system-common: Common files for QEMU system emulators.
qemu-system-data: Data files for QEMU system emulators.
qemu-system-gui: Graphical user interface for QEMU system emulators.
qemu-system-mips: QEMU system emulator for MIPS architectures.
qemu-system-misc: QEMU system emulator for other architectures.
qemu-system-ppc: QEMU system emulator for PowerPC architectures.
qemu-system-sparc: QEMU system emulator for SPARC architectures.
