Package: cdrom
Severity: serious
Since qemu-system-sparc64 can boot Linux only from a virtio device, it
would be really helpful to have the virtio-blk and virtio-net drivers on
the sparc install media.
Please note that this bug was earlier filed against the 'kernel'
package (Bug#673320),
and is resolved. Now there is a package
virtio-modules-3.2.0-2-sparc64-di , but it's still missing on the
sparc install media.
Other architectures (amd64, i686, ...) have these drivers, so it must
be safe to include them.

Looking at the current sparc images for wheezy, these drivers are
included and have been automatically since the kernel module packages
happened, AFAICS. Closing.
