Outch. Then I did a mistake, and currently in Squeeze, Xen qemu-dm is
using the files from the "normal" qemu. I'll repair it right away in
SID, and will try to have it uploaded to proposed-updates.

But what about the other files? I am 100% sure that xen qemu-dm needs at
least few network card BIOS files.
