Bug#1077845: release.debian.org: Should non-free-firmware require being built on buildd?



Hi,

Since the non-free is entirely opt-in and you had to be very active about opt'ing in as a admin, this seem fine. With the change to non-free-firmware now being enabled by d-i by default, we now have non-free-firmware packages installed by default that can use this opt-out and for me, that changes the game a bit.

I totally agree.

I have not checked whether all non-free-firmware is auto-buildable

It would be good if we had the answer to this question, because changing britney2 to do the check for all binaries is trivial [1], and adding a hint explicitly for those that aren't auto-buildable seems maintainable (there are currently only 15 sources in non-free-firmware in sid).
