This prediction doesn't seem to have come true.
Can we please have a top-level meta-package that depends on all the
firmware packages that do not require any click-through agreement?
Osamu sent a patch last year, it needs to be updated on the light of the
recently added binary packages but it's relatively straightforward.
Thank you!
