firmware-misc-nonfree i added because it adds some blobs to /lib/firmware/brcm: $ dpkg -S /lib/firmware/brcm/*.hcd firmware-misc-nonfree: /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM-0a5c-6410.hcd firmware-misc-nonfree: /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM-0bb4-0306.hcd bluez-firmware: /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM43430A1.hcd bluez-firmware: /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM43430B0.hcd bluez-firmware: /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM4345C0.hcd bluez-firmware: /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM4345C5.hcd just checked on amd64 and arm64, that those files are probably not needed by any kernel module explicitly, but probably requested by btusb module. maybe another subpackage - bluez-firmware-nonfree another solution raspi-wireless-firmware and raspi3-wireless-firmware subpackages (maybe also raspi-bluetooth-firmware/raspi3-bluetooth-firmware) On Wed, Jul 13, 2022 at 06:58:33PM +0200, Diederik de Haas wrote: > On woensdag 13 juli 2022 15:41:25 CEST Jiri Kastner wrote: > > raspi-firmware should depend on following packages: > > - firmware-brcm80211 > > - firmware-misc-nonfree > > - bluez-firmware > > I'd object to the use (and implementation) of the word 'depend'. > A recommends or suggests seems more appropriate. -- signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I (now) even think 'recommends' is too strong, 'suggests' is (still) fine I guess for firmware-brcm80211 and bluez-firmware (partly due to its small size). But firmware-misc-nonfree uses 40MB (with f.e. nvidia firmware). FTR: firmware-brcm80211 package uses 17MB While those packages may be useful for some RPi models, it is useless bloat for others. Adding (some of) those to the image generation scripts, which can differentiate between RPi models, seems more appropriate. My 0.02 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
