[Bug 541524] Re: BIOS shipped as binary blobs without source

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package qemu-kvm - 0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu1

---------------
qemu-kvm (0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * Re-roll the orig tarball, after having manually deleted the included
    binary-only bios rom blobs who source was not also included in the
    package, LP: #541524; the following files were removed:
    - pc-bios/bios.bin
    - pc-bios/linuxboot.bin
    - pc-bios/multiboot.bin
    - pc-bios/openbios-ppc
    - pc-bios/openbios-sparc
    - pc-bios/openbios-sparc32
    - pc-bios/openbios-sparc64
    - pc-bios/ppc_rom.bin
    - pc-bios/pxe-e1000.bin
    - pc-bios/pxe-i82559er.bin
    - pc-bios/pxe-ne2k_pci.bin
    - pc-bios/pxe-pcnet.bin
    - pc-bios/pxe-rtl8139.bin
    - pc-bios/pxe-virtio.bin
    - pc-bios/vapic.bin
    - pc-bios/vgabios.bin
    - pc-bios/vgabios-cirrus.bin
    - pc-bios/video.x
  * debian/control:
    - qemu-common goes back to depending on vgabios and seabios
    - suggest mol-drivers-macosx, which is in multiverse, and provides
      video.x (when that package actually builds)
    - suggest openbios-sparc, which is in universe, and provides the
      powerpc/sparc openbios roms (when that package actually builds)
  * debian/links:
    - put links in place for the external seabios and vgabios blobs
  * debian/patches/larger_default_ram_size.patch: increase the default
    mem size for virtual machines from the mostly unusable 128M to 384M,
    which most modern distros require
