Description Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2022-09-18 11:40:53 UTC
I get this warning when updating my system:
ERROR: preinst

Installation of a symlink is blocked by a directory:
  '/lib/firmware/qcom/LENOVO/21BX'
This symlink will be merged with a different name:
  '/lib/firmware/qcom/LENOVO/21BX.backup.0000'

Thanks

    sys-kernel/linux-firmware: tweak directory removal logic
    
    Adjust the has_version call to check include 20220913 for those of us
    who upgraded at a bad time.
    
    Don't execute the same code in pkg_postinst. That just ends up removing
    the symlink.
