Bug#531328: firmware-linux: Description should state that it's just related to Debian's kernel images



Package: firmware-linux
Version: 0.16
Severity: minor

Hi!

While tracking down a suspend/resume issue, I came across firmware-linux 
and wondered if it's needed for vanilla kernels (self compiled).

I guess this package is only necessary for the kernels shipped with 
Debian, so making it clear that it's not required for kernel.org's 
kernel sources would reduce some (at least my) confusion.

Cheerio
