> Can we close this old bug (i.e. by now doing nothing)?
As the primary uploader for firmware-ath9k-htc, I agree, so I'm doing so now.
firmware-linux-free has had a Recommends on firmware-ath9k-htc for a while now
and this is the right thing to do so users who need it will have it. Tangents
discussed in the bug are no longer relevant; the firmware binary is no longer
installed under a development filename (this was a hack to permit installation
alongside the firmware-atheros package) and no ABI-breaking major release has
happened since 1.4.0.
I admire your care in evaluating kernel-related bug reports and I'll try to do
the same as I broaden my interest in the kernel.
