Hi,

Thanks a lot for doing this. cruft-ng won't be updated during the freezing;
but one of the end-goal of this tool is to find bugs in other packages.

It comes from the "udeb"...

These are tiny but well fall into the description of "cruft" on a running system
and will get stale as long the real "wireless-regdb" is not installed

-rw-r--r-- root/root      4492 2022-07-30 22:10 ./lib/firmware/regulatory.db
-rw-r--r-- root/root      1225 2022-07-30 22:10 ./lib/firmware/regulatory.db.p7s

I don"t know if it helps the distribution as a whole to file a new bug
now about these two tiny files
   https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=debian-installer
I've never digged into this before, but will gladly have a look.
