I just dowloaded linux-firmware from kernel.org. The license clearly states: Copyright (c) 2006-2012, Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.
Redistribution. Redistribution and use in binary form, without modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are met: ... This firmware really should be moved to linux-firmware-nonfree which is part of multiverse. If it is significant enough that it should be available in restricted then a linux-firmware-restricted package in restricted should be considered. But many of us rely on only Free Software/OSI Certified Licensed/DSFG free software in main. Indeed a bug may have been fixed in the sense that the the obligations of license are now met. But this bug is about having this software in the correct package. Are there any objections in reopening this issue for both linux-firmware and linux-firmware-nonfree? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179139 Title: Intel Wireless Restrictions: ipw2100, ipw2200 are not Free To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/179139/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
