Package: qemu-kvm Version: 1.1.2+dfsg-2 Severity: normal
The "-net bridge" and "-netdev bridge" options doesn't work, most likey because the qemu-bridge-helper script is missing: # brctl show br0 bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br0 8000.1c6f65d5cb3c no eth0 # kvm -net bridge,br=br0 failed to launch bridge helper kvm: -net bridge,br=br0: Device 'bridge' could not be initialized In the manpage is written that the default helper script is /usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper. A file with this name isn't included in the qemu-kvm package. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (110, 'unstable'), (100, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages qemu-kvm depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii ipxe-qemu 1.0.0+git-20120202.f6840ba-3 ii libaio1 0.3.109-3 ii libasound2 1.0.25-4 ii libbluetooth3 4.99-2 ii libbrlapi0.5 4.4-5 ii libc6 2.13-37 ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.26.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.33.12+really2.32.4-3 ii libgnutls26 2.12.20-2 ii libiscsi1 1.4.0-3 ii libjpeg8 8d-1 ii libncurses5 5.9-10 ii libpng12-0 1.2.49-1 ii libpulse0 2.0-6 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.25.dfsg1-6 ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.15-5 ii libspice-server1 0.11.0-1 ii libtinfo5 5.9-10 ii libusbredirparser0 0.4.3-2 ii libuuid1 2.20.1-5.2 ii libvdeplug2 2.3.2-4 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1 ii python 2.7.3~rc2-1 ii qemu-keymaps 1.1.2+dfsg-2 ii qemu-utils 1.1.2+dfsg-2 ii seabios 1.7.0-1 ii vgabios 0.7a-3 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 Versions of packages qemu-kvm recommends: ii bridge-utils 1.5-6 ii iproute 20120521-3 Versions of packages qemu-kvm suggests: ii debootstrap 1.0.42 pn samba <none> ii vde2 2.3.2-4 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
