Likely due to some additions to Files-Excluded in MR86 (20230804), it now does pass. Pretty sure we'll still hit that limit soon (TM) though. I did extend d/README.source in that MR with instructions to build and run lintian so everyone can do it locally. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Small correction: qcom-soc no longer recommends atheros as the 'wlanmdsp' file was the (sole) reason for the recommends, so that can be dropped. I still think the separation is rather arbitrary and unlikely to be useful (going forward). signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Source: firmware-nonfree Version: 20230625-2 Severity: important -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 I'm currently working on an update for upstream version 20230919, based upon MR86 (Release 20230804) [1], which itself is based upon MR85 (Update to 20230625) [2] and I'm running into some major issues: 1) Salsa's CI now always fails as the (archive) size is now too big for it to handle it. 2) Upstream introduced a new keyword RawFile to 'list files that must not be compressed'. I'm guessing one or more script files need to be updated for it? 3) Upstream commit a0142c57045701b7557c3060af5c4246c420e4d8 titled "ath10k/WCN3990: move wlanmdsp to qcom/sdm845" would mean moving entries from ``debian/config/atheros`` to ``debian/config/qcom-soc`` and adding a 'recommends' field to ``atheros``'s ``defines`` file. Which means that qcom-soc recommends atheros and atheros recommends qcom-soc. Technically doable, but it raises the question whether this separation still makes sense.
