I'm in favor of this too but if it's a core feature (i.e. SIM card support) we should provide the package by default to, not?

this should be explained in the wiki,
Agree, APU boards etc also need some extra packages to support SDcards and things. Let's do this.

OTOH, this differs a bit from such packages, by being needed to connect to WAN on such devices. This is the same way as uqmi does on some - removing it would require other Internet connection to bootstrap its installation.



No they all have ethernet ports afaik, and that's "good enough" to allow the move.

The important thing to keep in mind here is this is a tradeoff. The package is being moved over to let someone maintain it properly, while nobody reviewed or merged relatively simple bug fixing patches for a year now.

I would say that getting an active maintainer is worth more than not requiring to connect to the internet through another device first to install packages.
