Package: firmware-linux-nonfree Version: 20160824-1 Followup-For: Bug #522415
Dear Maintainer, FWIW I also think that having the meta packages bring in as many firmware packages as possible can be useful. I would put the dependency in the firmware-linux-nonfree package rather than in the top-level package, but it's fine either way. The fact that firmware-amd-graphics is installed automatically but other firmware packages are not is rather asymmetric.
