Hi,

This is not at all the same issue originally reported as bug #1025476. 
In future, please do not follow up to a bug report that is vaguely
similar, but open a new one.

These files were last updated upstream in versions 20241110 and
20241210.

I have now updated the version of firmware-nonfree in bookworm-backports
to version 20241210-1~bpo12+1, so if you run:

    apt install -t bookworm-backports firmware-mediatek

that should install the same versions you currently have and will ensure
you get any later updates.

Ben.
