Need to confirm whether the missing ipxe files will be pulled in by first using the "libvirt --nographics" option.   If this is a viable workaround for Alpha3, we will need to add a release note.

What do you mean by "using libvirt --nographics option"? I can't find such option in libvirt. There's -nograpchis in qemu, but it's used to disable graphics output (VGA) and redirect serial ports, which severely limits qemu usefulness.

Hai, we need to wait till next compose as Alpha-3 is still having qemu-1.3.0 based version qemu-kvm however there has been rebase from qemu-1.3.0 to qemu-1.4.0 that's having the dependency fixed from ipxe to ipxe-roms-qemu already,

Because of the update from qemu-1.3.0 to qemu-1.4.0 we would need to wait for a new compose as qemu-1.3.0 based version will be outdated in the next compose.
