My bad, please ignore this, I mistakening think a new meta package 
linux-firmware-extra is created, while actually linux-firmware-extra is a 
subpackage.

It seems Intel wifi/wimax stuff is not moved to extra as you stated.

Subject: [meego-packaging] split linux-firmware pacakge

Linux-firm-ware is bloated (13M+) and designed with PC needs in mind running 
everywhere. To make it slim to meet needs of mobile device, here it's a first 
effort to split this big package, see [1]. It has a separate 
linux-firmware-extra package. For main package, I just put the really needed 
stuff for current vertical/platforms by going through changelog. I move OLPC XO 
stuff and Intel wifi/wimax stuff to -extra while it's used in netbook. With 
this, linux-firmware is just 1.3M, 10% small than before. BTW, this is just 
first step, next step is to create vertical specific firmware package if needed.

Please have a review and let me know if anything missed that's needed for your 
platform.
