So am I correct then this wasn't even worth a look to see if there was
any code that might have changed that could have caused this?  If so, I
really disagree with the approach of just changing the status, and
certainly with no communication, from a quality standpoint.  If you all
truly don't wish to know when something breaks after a package update,
fine, won't spend time reporting things.  The thing is, the Ubuntu
documentation is full of preachy admonitions to get involved, let us
know when there is a problem, showing humanity to one another, blah blah
blah.  (And no, I'm not a new user even though the profile is new, not
looking for a place to get "technical support", I had a previous
launchpad account that I deleted, try to guess why).

Title:
  Internet connectivity through AR8131 Gigabit Ethernet breaks

Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.3 (later referenced as *3) for linux-
  firmware breaks internet connectivity/there is no internet
  connectivity through AR8131 Gigabit Ethernet interface.

  Using the installed package prior to this update,
  20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu1 (later referenced as *1), does not cause
  an issue.

  Ubuntu release: 22.04

  When I installed *3, rebooted the next day and internet was no longer
  available.  Checked with the the internet service provider, and
  connected the ethernet cable to a separate matchine and had
  connectivity.  A boot with live Ubuntu 22.04 USB showed no
  connectivity issues (which I assume is using *1).  Reinstalled a fresh
  Ubuntu 22.04 and held back *3.3 and now have internet.

  The only other update made on the day of the update of *3 was
  wireless-regdb.  This package was not held back when I reinstalled
  Ubuntu 22.04, seems to be causing no issue.

  **Update** Tried going to *3 package today and internet connectivity
  works. Maybe there was corruption but received no messages of same the
  day of the original upgrade.
