The rtw89 driver was merged into the mainline Linux kernel in
version 5.16 [1]. The Debian stable kernel (6.12) ships with
CONFIG_RTW89_8852AE=m and all other RTW89 variants enabled as
modules [2], so the hardware is supported out of the box.
As noted in this bug, the original reporter acknowledged that the
package is no longer needed.
Closing this RFP as this package is no longer needed on Debian.
