[Bug 1754871] Re: qemu-bridge-helper incorrectly installed

[Andreas Hasenack]

Correct, it's not suid root because of security concerns, according to
this changelog entry from verison 2.1+dfsg-3:

  * include /usr/lib/qemu-bridge-helper binary, but not make it setuid
    due to security concerns outlined in #691138 (Closes: #691138)

I'll subscribe @paelzer for further commenting.
