which bug reports?

network card roms are in the etherboot-qemu package, and seabios, vgabios,
openbios and openhackware are in their respective packages...

/usr/share/xen/qemu is a symlink to /usr/share/qemu, and /usr/share/qemu
seems contains almost entirely symlinks to other packages:

everything other than the keymaps dir(which is in qemu-keymaps), bamboo.dtb and
mpc8544ds.dtb is in another package.  do you need the *.dtb files as well?

what other files do you need? does the "qemu-dm" binary somehow include other
files at runtime somehow?

please report bugs against qemu and other packages if there's anything that
still remains to be split out, and mark them as blocking this bug. perhaps
should rename the bug to be renamed to indicate it's broader than the
qemu-keymaps package.


live well,
