Package: qemu-system-misc
Version: 2.1+dfsg-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The package is missing two firmware files for qemu-system-microblaze,
petalogix-ml605.dtb and petalogix-s3adsp1800.dtb.  These files has
been removed in DFSG-fication step from the upstream sources due to
lack of source code for them, but it turns out that these files ARE
the source as upstream ships them.  dtc is used to convert between
dtb (binary) and dts (editable text) forms, and the conversion is
1:1 in this case, there's nothing in the original dts besides the
content dtc produces given a dtb.

The solution is to restore the upstream files, stop removing them
for DFSG, and ship them in qemu-system-misc.  Unfortunately this
requires a new source upload.

Alternative is to ship .dts files in debian/ and compile them during
build time.  Somewhat ugly but should work too.
