I can see how kfreebsd-downloader can provide a working solution, but I wouldn't consider it an appropriate bug fix which would satisfy users. The idea of kfreebsd-downloader is to download a kernel package already requires a working Internet connection. Thus, it is very complicated to get a working kernel image and kfreebsd-downloader's postinst logic at the same time. However, most modules removed from the pristine kernel tarball are network card drivers which makes the usage of kfreebsd-downloader pretty hard. That said, you're the maintainer of the kernel package so you rule. I personally would let the bug open but demote it to wishlist as the downloader provides an uniform way to build a non-free kernel. In the long term we should still target d-i support and installable debs from non-free just like the Linux folks do. Nonetheless I appreciate your work as it is already a step forward and improves the situation a lot. - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJPHCWtAAoJEMcrUe6dgPNtawQP/RsJzACrLrRDBAi4UJJbcaqw LQ4tRhjjLopXG/PF9vljBkbbfFFkVM9H1IZ+wU3QJbq3toJKretdpxKFCC00LsCy 5IxUI/PQ2ZElWT79kkCtukDve5bbEXeLYA/3QwTHLvDhjfsnPNgx7QJsIgwq5lg9 pnC4DovwnIMyQRIEUZsx/2OfSAKoNW7uUl6BqmLz1Pyfmokkyc2dz/pKBcdkS5Gn JFYWDvx22oinPiRyjbdBbnBqcsx7DeX7orDL3U9F14nm6ltjA7AjByNQKE2IGwkG 5GvK33Q6LLA5eMC8jhJDNL9xrI+Mr0/4Z9yCzAIC+vBTVCvNLKBoe6JvM7DfM7Gx 5UGNILKvp06zym+QpmQ3UJCI7lAiu2n2+PWrcsFyP2tLz6sq/b8l4IFNk47pi4b/ /MOgLLGI1eEP0441yFga728CPolyGD4yTmhRJHpXgzncFYn2I41YfDjJOMSNKpVj 2wLHvi3hI2EdMhPcAoC/ekdWZ8IN5yy5V4H5lRQTuHF58U0WJ4fQpwWaKI/RXkUC lk4MJcQaN0aNWzPamKV51UMo3e/aZhNIuzUXJIwA9c6pFrbiLb4R5YFfEUCE9ndV Jdo5uzpEHG7qeb8uOVpVh/mbd+TcuanPXlAtC6fyJlfVOZztMbzmAM0DRhjQ13+3 ro4Qb7H7XicvR+FD8vXK =Y16a -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bsd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
