Title:
  qemu-img should give reasons for failing

Status in QEMU:
  Fix Released
Status in “qemu” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in “qemu-kvm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: qemu

    $ kvm-img create -f qcow2 disks/t.img 4000M
    Formatting 'disks/t.img', fmt=qcow2, size=4096000 kB
    qemu-img: Error while formatting

  strace shows that the real error was "Permission denied". It should
  say so, using strerror.
