None of these are blockers on linux-firmware, none of these are included |
| 47 |
in linux firmware, none of these should be masked with no replacement as |
| 48 |
we are breaking approximately 90% of wifi cards on laptops built in the |
| 49 |
last 5 years. |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Only the following acctually show masked when I update: |
| 52 |
- -net-wireless/atmel-firmware |
| 53 |
- -net-wireless/b43-firmware |
| 54 |
- -net-wireless/b43legacy-firmware |
| 55 |
- -net-wireless/rtl8192su |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Due to the damage this will cause I am removing the mask on these NOW, I |
| 58 |
will cleanup the ebuilds today but this is bad, really really bad. If |
| 59 |
we are cleaning up linux-firmware that's great, but someone needs to |
| 60 |
check that the things we are masking/removing are actually in |
| 61 |
linux-firmware... |

Thanks, |
