Description Mira Ressel 2015-04-15 22:53:20 UTC
Please replace the line
    save_config ${PN}.conf
in sys-kernel/linux-firmware's src_install() by
    use savedconfig || save_config ${PN}.conf

Re-saving the config in this situation is useless, and if one keeps the configuration in a version-agnostic savedconfig/sys-kernel/linux-firmware file, every new version of linux-firmware currently creates its own linux-firmware-200xxxx duplicate.
