Comment 5 Patrick Talbert 2022-05-19 13:15:17 UTC
I installed the 126.el9_0 packages and then updated to packages from this new build.

It seems to work fine except since I removed the Epoch parameters for iwl1000 and iwl3160 it does not see those as an upgrade. Also I apparently missed the Epoch parameter for iwl7260.

Anyway, I suppose I should put the Epoch parameters back for iwl1000 and iwl3160 as it seems once you start using them you can't really drop them.

This was merged, so I think we're good here. (BTW if you want quicker response I suggest irc/slack).
