One alternative would be to offer a downloader. Just hiding them from the user is not a good policy. Microcode updates can contain security updates (among other fixes), so you should have some mechanism to distribute them to your users. If you don't want to offer these updates you should at least clearly explain those tradeoffs to your users. -Andi -- a...@linux.intel.com -- Speaking for myself only -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
