Bug#711470: ath9k_htc updated firmware for firmware-linux-free
It seems like the biggest blocker is that building ath9k_htc requires building an entire (cross)toolchain. There is an open issue about getting ath9k_htc firmware into Debian at: https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/issues/90 These issues are also mentioned in an RFP for ath9k-htc-firmware: https://bugs.debian.org/751339 live well, vagrant signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Bug#711470: ath9k_htc updated firmware for firmware-linux-free
Hello, I think we must really shame our self this software is not in Debian Jessie! Is there no RFP? Maybe it cannot be in firmware-linux-free because the code has another source.

Bug#711470: ath9k_htc updated firmware for firmware-linux-free
Package: firmware-linux-free Version: 3.2 The current firmware-linux-free package does not contain free firmware for the certain Atheros chipsets. Recently, the htc_7010.fw and htc_9721.fw firmwares were updated by Atheros and re-released under a free software license. This would invoke the removal of the non-free firmwares from the firmware-atheros package as well. More information at https://www.fsf.org/news/ryf-ce.rtification-thinkpenguin-usb-with-atheros-chip. Recent firmware files can be obtained from http://jxself.org/ath9k-htc/version-1.3.2/ or from the source at https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware. Please consider updating these two firmware files in a package update for Wheezy and above when possible. I am using Debian GNU/Linux 7 with kernel 3.2.0.4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
