Package: qemu-system-x86
Version: 1:10.0.0~rc1+ds-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: waldi@debian.org

This is a regression from Bookworm, I think. In this version, even if available, qemu never tries to run efi-virtio.rom. Instead it just goes
to the EDK2 internal EFI shell (depending on other config, sometimes also the internal PXE/HTTPBoot support).

I tried setting the romfile for virtio-net-pci, no change.

BIOS works:
| $ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -nic user,model=virtio -boot n -nographic
| SeaBIOS (version 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2)
|

EFI does not:

| BdsDxe: starting Boot0001 "EFI Internal Shell" from Fv(7CB8BDC9-F8EB-4F34-AAEA-3EE4AF6516A1)/FvFile(7C04A583-9E3E-4F1C-AD65-E05268D0B4)

Am I doing something stupid here? ipxe-qemu is from unstable with the
ROM changes already.
