I don't quite follow how the firmware change is supposed to work... The firmware is currently supposed to be a noarch package, and it gets built in the same pass as the kernel-docs sub-package, so it *shouldn't* be built in the same pass as the kernel. Is this flag to simply override that and build the firmware as an arch-specific package for simplified one-off builds? -- Jarod Wilson jwilson@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Fedora-kernel-list mailing list Fedora-kernel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-kernel-list
