...No, and we're looking at splitting those out, but the fact is they are a tiny amount of the overall firmware collection. You could even argue either way for something like bluetooth due to it sometimes being used by keyboards.We actually already strip a lot of those in lorax.
then, in cleanup, we wipe a bunch of files that have not yet been split out from linux-firmware but which we know the installer env doesn't need: https://github.com/weldr/lorax/blob/master/share/templates.d/99-generic/runtime-cleanup.tmpl#L201
Thanks for the links. Putting aside the installer image... the firmware files mentioned in last link are not so small:

This is about 20 % of size of
linux-firmware package. Can this be moved to to separate
subpackage?
