I’m using Opensuse 12.2 32 bit with the most recent updates. Some minutes ago, I wanted to install qemu, so I did

sudo zypper install qemu

However, there was a problem during the setup procecss:

What does this message mean? I can’t use qemu, despite it states as installed. So what do I have to do to fix this?

Ok, I have to install qemu-linux-user as well to use qemu on Opensuse.
However, this message remains:

**/usr/lib/qemu-bridge-helper: cannot verify root:root 0755 - not listed in /etc/permissions
**What can I do to fix this?

Nothing, this is an info message (which also exists with some other
rpm’s) where it just tells you that the install process sees a file
where it cannot check if the permissions are correct or not because it
is not listed in /etc/permissions.
So you have to rely that the rpm packager did it right, the system knows
nothing about the correctness of the permissions of that file.
That’s all.
