Bug#349164: O: ipw2200 -- Source for the ipw2200 driver
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I intend to orphan the ipw2200 package.
As it is now included in vanilla kernel (1.0.0 in 2.6.14 and 1.0.8 in
2.6.15), and is impossible to build without breaking the debian
packaging system for recent kernels (see #338775), I lost interest in
packaging ipw2200. I'm therefore orphaning it. I'll be doing the same
for ieee80211 shortly.
The package description is:
This package provides the source code for the ipw2200 kernel modules.
Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 (IPW2200) mini PCI adapter is a common component
of Centrino notebooks.
.
In order to compile these modules you need the kernel sources (or the
kernel headers for the kernel image packages from Debian). For compile
instructions look into /usr/share/doc/ipw2200-source/README.Debian or
simply use the module-assistant utility.
.
Please note that ipw2200 only supports being built for Linux kernel
versions 2.6.4 and greater.
.
