It's due 20 March 2024, so in nine days ([schedule](https://wiki.gnome.org/FortySix)). I'm not sure if there's anything we can do yet (haven't really investigated), but it would be nice if we could get the upgrade done smoothly and try to have it completed in Alpine not too long after the upstream release.

This could be significantly smaller if we started compressing firmware during packaging. The Linux kernel has supported loading compressed firmware since version 5.3 and other distributions such as Fedora and Arch Linux have already implemented this successfully. In Fedora, for example, at the time of writing the entire `/lib/firmware` directory is a more modest 238 MB.
There are some problems however. Not all firmware can be compressed, so exceptions would have to be made on a per-file basis. In particular, firmware served to certain remote processors on Qualcomm devices cannot be compressed at the moment as the serving happens in userspace rather than kernelspace. There may also be other necessary exceptions, so this would require extensive testing to avoid breakage. As other distributions already have implemented this, we could investigate what files (if any) they exempt as a start. However, their lists may not be complete as it is unlikely that they've tested more obscure ARM hardware.Natanael CopaNatanael Copahttps://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/14478Grafana: setting in conf.d supersedes setting in grafana.ini2022-12-19T16:17:37ZT MGrafana: setting in conf.d supersedes setting in grafana.iniHi,

It does not look like a good idea for me to do it that way.Konstantin KulikovKonstantin Kulikovhttps://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/13031split grpc to compiler plugin and libgrpc++2021-09-23T15:48:53Z杨文 陈split grpc to compiler plugin and libgrpc++to reduce the main pkg size, split the follow dist like
