[Bug 540218] [NEW] qemu-common does not appear to be creating the /etc/qemuif{up, down} symlinks

[Dominic Evans]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

# Abstract

qemu-common does not correctly symlink /etc/qemuif{up,down} to the
matching scripts located in /usr/bin/

# Description

qemu-if{up,down} used to be directly installed into /etc, but recent
qemu-kvm changes seem to have refactored this so that they are layed
down by qemu-common in /usr/bin and then they are meant to be symlinked
according to the package.

$ cat debian/qemu-common.links 
usr/bin/qemu-ifdown etc/qemu-ifdown
usr/bin/qemu-ifup etc/qemu-ifup

This doesn't appear to be working.
