Package: qemu-kvm
Version: 0.12.4+dfsg-1
Severity: minor

I finally got "-net tap" to work properly!
(wishlist: the documentation on networking could be greatly improved...)

My command line (somewhat simplified) is:

$ kvm -cpu host -m 2G -drive 
file=image.qcow2,index=0,cache=writeback,media=disk -vga std -soundhw ac97 -net 
nic,macaddr=$macaddress,model=e1000 -net tap

and this leads, by default, to the following error message on exit:

/etc/kvm/kvm-ifdown: could not launch network script

Of course, as /etc/kvm/kvm-ifdown does not exist.
Rather than adding ",downscript=none"
perhaps the debian package should install one, such as

#! /bin/sh
# Script to bring a network (tap) device for qemu-kvm down

(or containing a better comment, stating why no action is necessary).

Thanks!
