Package: firmware-nonfree Version: 20250209-1 Severity: important Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer, on Debian 13 (Trixie), the package firmware-realtek-udeb does not include the firmware file rtl8168e-3.fw, which is required by the common Realtek RTL8168/8111 network interface. As a result, during installation with debian-installer (both stable and daily images), the installer stops asking for the missing firmware. After installation, the firmware works fine because the full package firmware-realtek provides it. Steps to reproduce: 1. Boot Debian Trixie installer (netinst or live with d-i). 2. Network hardware: Realtek RTL8168/8111. 3. Installer asks for rtl8168e-3.fw, which is not present in /lib/firmware. Expected result: firmware-realtek-udeb should provide rtl8168e-3.fw, so debian-installer can use the NIC without manual intervention. Thanks, Andrea

[...] The firmware-realtek package does contain this file, and it is included in the netinst image. I'm reassigning this report to the installer team to investigate why the file isn't being automatically installed. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings The world is coming to an end. Please log off.
