I updated the related packages, mainly metadata updates. Would be good to add additional comaintainers if they're willing to proactively bump versions. I tend to update in response to flags and errors.
The downloads for firmware and calibration data are very large. Would be good to switch to smaller sources if anyone knows of any.
@xiota Done. @slackinghyena I think one co-maintainer would be enough for now, but I'll keep you in mind if the package ever needs a new maintainer.
EDIT: @xiota I have also added you as a co-maintainer for the packages related to this one.
Happy to be co-maintainer too
Would someone like to co-maintain this package? I'm currently not that active on Arch.
This patch should work
