Severity: normal
Tags: patch
With the new kernel modules as of 0.2.8+svn1850+dfsg-1 the linux-wlan-ng
package itself is not strictly needed for many users (mostly only for
those who need firmware RAM loading). However the -modules- packages
have a dependency on it. Maybe it can be changed to a Recommends or
Suggests.
