I managed to track down a copy of the original software archive to verify that the firmware is covered by a license that allows us to redistribute the file. The license explicitly prohibits reproduction, so we're unable to package it. The good news is that this isn't the only firmware that has this shortcoming. The Broadcom b43 firmware is also only available under that license, so we ship a package that allows you to fetch it yourself easily. I'll work up a package to do that for DVB firmware blobs also. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
