Package: bluez Version: 5.66.1 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: undef <debian@undef.tools>
Dear Maintainer, `hciattach` and similar tools load firmware at runtime, however they currently look for this firmware in /etc/firmware. This then requires shipping a symlink to /lib/firmware where the firmware packages install it to enable functionality requiring firmware [1]. I'm not sure if there is an existing reason for loading firmware from /etc/firmware or if this is just the upstream default, but if not, could I request this package is build with `-DFIRMWARE_DIR=/lib/firmware`? [2].
