Package: firmware-linux-free
Version: 3.4
It appears that the source package for firmware-linux-free contains the
firmware binaries downloaded from linux-firmware.git. Shouldn't a source
package contain, you know, the source code? Especially as some of the
firmwares are GPL-licensed, and Debian is shipping only the binaries.
In looking into other distros it seems that that most don't compile the
firmware from source either. As a result people don't notice when the tools
to do so break. For example: The as31 assembler needed to build the usbdux
firmware currently segfaults. Reference bug #887320.
