Summary0001206: New firmware versions have lower EVRs
DescriptionFrom: Subramanian AR by email

Hi,

I noticed that there are updates from elrepo-extras for linux-firmware
pkgs. The following pkgs are not getting the recent updates due to
lower version numbering (for the update), I thought I would bring to
your notice:

        iwl3160-firmware-22.0.7.0-80.1.el7_9.elrepo.noarch.rpm
        iwl3160-firmware-25.30.13.0-76.1.el7_8.elrepo.noarch.rpm

        iwl6000g2a-firmware-17.168.5.3-80.1.el7_9.elrepo.noarch.rpm
        iwl6000g2a-firmware-18.168.6.1-76.1.el7_8.elrepo.noarch.rpm

        iwl6000g2b-firmware-17.168.5.2-80.1.el7_9.elrepo.noarch.rpm
        iwl6000g2b-firmware-18.168.6.1-76.1.el7_8.elrepo.noarch.rpm

        iwl7260-firmware-22.0.7.0-80.1.el7_9.elrepo.noarch.rpm
        iwl7260-firmware-25.30.13.0-76.1.el7_8.elrepo.noarch.rpm

Would it be possible to fix this.? Thanks.

regards,

Subramanian

It is going to take some time to resolve the problem. As the recently released package set is incorrect it has been removed from the repository.

Any affected system should revert back to either the Red Hat package set or the earlier ELRepo package set.

A test install was performed on an up-to-date RHEL7 VM. Taking the list of the files that make up the new package set, the system was interrogated with regards to each package in the set --

iwl1000-firmware-39.31.5.1-80.el7_9.noarch
iwl100-firmware-39.31.5.1-80.el7_9.noarch

An update / install was then performed using the new package set and the system was re-interrogated with respects to each package in the set --

iwl1000-firmware-39.31.5.1-80.2.el7_9.elrepo.noarch

linux-firmware-20220301-80.2.gitee0667aa.el7_9.elrepo.noarch

The result appears to be satisfactory.

Assuming that some further ELRepo Project internal checks prove positive, the EL7 package set will be released.

(For completeness, I shall mention that similar has been done for the equivalent new EL8 package set.)

With the recent release [1] of an updated package set this problem has been resolved.

Now closing as "resolved/fixed".
