[Holger Levsen] > So make it recommend both microcode packages? So firmware-linux-nonfree should have two Recommends that are unsatisfiable on all but 2 of Debian's architectures (i386 and amd64)?

Maybe those kernels lack a CPU microcode interface? Peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
