Bug#868718: qemu: Qemu fails to run on Stretch, due to missing libraries

[Ryan Thoryk]

Package: qemu
Version: 1:2.8+dfsg-6
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Qemu is not running on my Stretch machine, due to missing libraries. I'm going
to build from source and see if that fixes it.

ryan@t420:~$ qemu-system-i386
qemu-system-i386: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so.1d: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory

ryan@t420:~$ ldd /usr/bin/qemu-system-i386

I found that rebuilding the packages from source fixes the problem.

It works just fine here. And this is not the version of qemu-system-x86 which
is shipped in debian, because:

$ ldd /usr/bin/qemu-system-i386 | egrep 'lib(nss|smime|ssl|pld|plc|nspr)'
libssl.so.1.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.1 (0x00007fa7b753d000)
libnss3.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss3.so (0x00007fa7b6d5e000)
libnssutil3.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnssutil3.so (0x00007fa7b6b30000)
libsmime3.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsmime3.so (0x00007fa7b6903000)
libssl3.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl3.so (0x00007fa7b66ab000)
libplds4.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libplds4.so (0x00007fa7b64a7000)
libplc4.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libplc4.so (0x00007fa7b62a2000)
libnspr4.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnspr4.so (0x00007fa7b6060000)

(version 2.8+dfsg-6).

Please find out where you've got the package from.

Thanks,

Note that none of the above libraries are used by qemu-system directly.
All of them are used by libcacard.so.0 (which is used by qemu).

It looks like you have some old libcacard.so.0 file, which uses old
versions of libnspr and libnss libraries (these are from firefox),
most likely from jessie, not upgraded to stretch, hence you see
the errors which you see.

Rebuilding qemu from source results in it not using libcacard at
all because it is non-functioning on your system, so the resulting
binaries works (without trying to load your system libcacard.so).

Please check your jessie->stretch upgrade status and fix any
leftovers.

I'm closing this bugreport. If the problem persists after you
ensure your system is running real stretch and not some half-
jessie, please file a bugreport against the actually broken
package (libcacard in this case).

Thanks!
