Bug 668064 – sys-firmware/b43-firmware & sys-firmware/b43legacy-firmware stable request

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ben Kohler 2018-10-08 15:50:39 UTC]

Please stabilize these so we can start shipping them on official install media (in place of b43-fwcutter).

Thanks!

for what arches is needed?

[Comment 2 Ben Kohler 2019-03-15 14:35:33 UTC]

It's needed for installcds for amd64, ppc, and x86.  But ppc already has stable keyword, so only amd64 & x86 still need stabilization

But the above statement isn't true:
---
# emerge -cpv net-wireless/b43-fwcutter

Calculating dependencies  .. .... ... done!

Try "emerge -cpv net-wireless/b43-fwcutter --with-bdeps=n"
