Jonathan already answered it, saying that firmwares are put in versioned dir. Just use git to look it up, easy: ~/src/linux-next (master %=)$ git log scripts/package/builddeb 6607ddadf93d19c7f64139f1475c342152f39fe5 Your conflict would mean to kick out the official debian firmware packages which is not something we want! -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
