Totally agree. What I still don't know (and am trying to figure out) is where it is decided what will end up in the install media.

Like, using this issue as an example, why isn't the firmware package there? If it's due to the no-recommends thing... Where is it that we set "no-recommends" in such a way that is has this effect?

Is it, perhaps, here: https://github.com/yast/skelcd-control-MicroOS/blob/master/control/control. MicroOS.xml#L100 ?

Hm, patterns-microos-onlyDVD seems containing kernel-firmware. It looks specific to MicroOS, so I don't know what's the purpose, though...

Yeah, it really is.

In the normal installation, kernel-firmware is chosen either via the recommends from kernel-default (or equivalent), or from patterns-media, as far as I look though the packages So, install-recommends is mandatory in that case.

We've been discussing (on MicroOS Desktop chat channels) how to deal with this. Enabling soft dependencies is apparently a no go, nor we want firmware-all in there. So I'll probably add the most obvious network firmware packages to the onlyDVD pattern (which definitely includes iwlwifi) and see if this fixes this issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
