Subject: iwlwifi: Do not request unreleased firmware for IWL6000
|
|
Bug-Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/689416
|
|
Forwarded: not-needed

|
|
The iwlwifi driver currently supports firmware API versions 4-6 for
|
|
these devices. It will request the file for the latest supported
|
|
version and then fall back to earlier versions. However, the latest
|
|
version that has actually been released is 4, so we expect the
|
|
requests for versions 6 and then 5 to fail.
|
|
|
|
The installer appears to report any failed request, and it is probably
|
|
not easy to detect that this particular failure is harmless. So stop
|
|
requesting the unreleased firmware.
