Reminders:

  1. If your wifi adapter is in CD-ROM mode, you need to use the command usb_modeswitch or eject to switch it to "Wifi Mode" first.

  2. Before installing this package, make sure your system has the corresponding kernel headers and the package base-devel installed.

  3. You have to manually blacklist or remove any conflicting drivers installed except the in-kernel rtw88 driver.

@dreieck Sure, I will add them if the package rtw88-dkms is ever created

dreieck commented on 2024-11-14 20:21 (UTC)

Can you please add provides=("rtw88-dkms") and conflicts=("rtw88-dkms")?

Regards and thanks for the package!

@xiota Sorry that I am not going to add provides/conflicts on rtw88-dkms. I think no one would create a package like rtw88-dkms as the stable version of rtw88 is just in the kernel. I am not pretty good at English, so please tell me if I misunderstand what you mean.

Setting provides/conflicts is standard practice for git and patched packages. It is in guidelines. Since stable package doesn't exist, you could bundle it with a future update, but many maintainers forget when they put it off for later. If you want to avoid unnecessary rebuilds, you could skip bumping pkgrel. The update would take effect when upstream pushes a new commit.

@xiota The package rtw88-dkms doesn't exist currently, do we really need to have provides/conflicts on it?
