Why does Ubuntu have qemu-system-ppc64le at all?
Hm, apparently it is not really there. It is a soft-link to qemu-system-ppc64. So that hunk really makes no sense because apparmor is following the link before checking permissions. I will refresh that one to drop the ppc64le path. -Stefan
qemu-system-ppc64 can run both ppc64 and ppc64le guests just fine, it's emulating the same hardware and the endianness is decided at runtime AFAIK.
Upstream QEMU doesn't seem to know anything about this:
$ ./configure --target-list=ppc64le-softmmu ERROR: Unknown target name 'ppc64le-softmmu'
and it's not in the Debian package, so it must have been added specifically for Ubuntu.
