It is using the similar appstream, and firmware packages are expected to populate it with the relevant information. I believe requiring apt-file in addition will increase the disk foot print too much, and slow down 'apt update' too much to be the default setup. The 'appstreamcli what-provides firmware:runtime ipw2100-1.3-p.fw' command is supposed to return the relevant package as registered in appstream. Is it not working? If so, the fix need to be done in the firmware package. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
