The commit hash needs to be updated for compatibility with latest kernel versions.

The latest at the time of writing is d53a23d ("Merge pull request #354 from etzngr/realtek-4.4.x: Fix build with Kernel 6.16 and 6.17"), and seems to be working fine with Linux 6.18.5.

Alternatively, the commit pinning could be entirely removed, so to always track the repo head, which seems to be actively maintained for compatibility with latest kernel versions.

Not using anymore. Disowned so anyone can get it and give the love that this package needs.

Hello, this package references an old commit, can you update this reference to fix compilation for linux >= 6.8.0

jarohen commented on 2023-07-31 21:21 (UTC)

Fixed by upgrading to Linux 6.1

Hi there,
