Hi,
our daily builds started failing with 5.1777039154.e2faf810-3. The
last good os-autoinst version was 5.1768577300.b85e4864-1.
On aarch64, os-autoinst fails running qemu with these errors:
QEMU: QEMU emulator version 11.0.0 (Debian 1:11.0.0+ds-1)
QEMU: Copyright (c) 2003-2026 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers
!!! : qemu-system-aarch64: -device virtio-net,netdev=qanet0,mac=52:54:00:12:34:56: failed
to find romfile "efi-virtio.rom"
...
It seems likely that ipxe-qemu needs to be pulled in by os-autoinst
as it did previously (maybe via a dependency chain).
Actually, it seems that qemu-system-arm needs to depend on ipxe-qemu,
instead of recommending it. Because else it doesn't work in default
configuration (unless you explicitly specify romfile= (empty)).
Why in this case, recommends aren't being installed?
Thanks,
/mjt
Best,
Chris
