Package: broadcom-sta-source
Version: 5.100.82.112-8

Is the broadcom-sta-source intended to be a package for x86-only or for
all architectures?  In the latter case I would suggest the package be
renamed "broadcom-sta-x86-source".  In the former case the
broadcom-sta-source *currently* only has support for x86 and those of us
on MIPS/MIPSel would appreciate help.

The handy source for MIPS/MIPSel tarballs is:
http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/

  broadcom-wl-5.100.138.tar.bz2

The build system driver for OpenWRT is:
svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk/package/kernel/broadcom-wl
(note that OpenWRT's build system is a maze of twisty Makefiles all
slightly different)

Based on the versions, I'm guessing 5.100.138 will be the easier target
for attempting a packaging right now.  I'm expecting for this to be an
interesting project...

Yes, amd64 and i386 only.
Because it's not a pure open source project.
It has binary from upstream without source, and only support x86.

I don't think this can be changed, so not so meaningful to update the
package name.
Thank you!

Cheers,
