Description Torsten Kaiser 2013-06-22 13:09:38 UTC
After updating this firmware package emaint complained.

It seems that the RDEPEND blocker on rt61-firmware still calls it net-wireless/rt61-firmware, but before that package was removed competely it was moved to sys-firmware/rt61-firmware and that trips emaint.

As sys-firmware/rt61-firmware got removed 3 month ago, it might be simpler to just remove it from the RDEPEND.

-		!net-wireless/ar9271-firmware
-		!net-wireless/i2400m-fw
-		!net-wireless/libertas-firmware
-		!net-wireless/rt61-firmware
-		!net-wireless/rt73-firmware
-		!net-wireless/rt2860-firmware
-		!net-wireless/rt2870-firmware


Looks like all these can be safely removed.  I'm going to do this for latest stable through 99999999 if no one objects in short order.

3 months is probably not enough, some people might still have it installed.

So should we fix it to sys-firmware/* like it was when it was removed?  Seems like that is safe enough for the next 3 months.
Comment 4 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn gentoo-dev 2013-06-23 18:44:39 UTC
Changing the blockers to sys-firmware/* is fine with me.
Comment 5 Torsten Kaiser 2013-06-23 18:59:21 UTC
Note: Only net-wireless/rt61-firmware needs to be migrated!

Looking in the CVS it seems the other firmwares were directly dropped from net-wrieless and were never moved to sys-firmware. (My guess would be that even then these other firmware files where already part of linux-firmware and so they were directly dropped instead of being moved.)
