Looking at the sid package, this module was added to the virtio-modules package unconditionally (doesn't depend on the arch, as opposed to the pci one); that happened in r20402, in preparation for 3.10.1-1. I've just looked at all linux-image-* binaries built from linux 3.2.60-1+deb7u1, and all contain that module but two[*], so I'm not entirely sure about its arch-independence. The attached patch (against the wheezy svn branch) might do the work, or might need an extra '?'. [*] The two packages are the s390* -tape variants, which were dropped in the meanwhile: linux-image-3.2.0-4-s390x-tape_3.2.60-1+deb7u1_s390.deb linux-image-3.2.0-4-s390x-tape_3.2.60-1+deb7u1_s390x.deb Mraw, KiBi.
