#789 Inheritance of iwl4965-firmware (and iwl5000-firmware)
Closed: Fixed None Opened 15 years ago by kwizart.

A new build of the firmware (that has dropped the ExcludeArch: ppc ppc64 ), is needed within the repositories because the re-introduction of iwl4965.ko within the the ppc/ppc64 kernels.

Since iwl4965-firmware in Rawhide (iwl4965-firmware-228.57.2.21-3) has drop one of the deprecated version of the firmware, Inheritance will need to be helped to go from F-8 to F-9 for this package.

This package need to be inherited in the F-9 repository (only)

iwl5000-firmware-5.4.A.11-3 , built from F-8, need to be inherited to F-9 and Rawhide

I've tagged iwl5000-firmware-5.4.A.11-3 for F-9 since it has gone out to stable on f8. The other update hasn't gone to stable yet so I haven't tagged it.

iwl4965-firmware has been submitted to the stable repository. (I thought I've already done it )

now that iwl500-firmware is within the repositories it could be added to the comps.xml as package installed by default. (only for Rawhide, probably). I guess it can be doable once the beta freeze is passed, (and the module usability has been proved).

Looks like we're all tagged up OK here.
