[announce] firmware-tools conversions of Dell Update Packages pushed to default repo

[Michael_E_Brown at Dell.com]

In line with the testing announcement last week and a couple comments this week, I'd like to announce that the firmware-tools converted Dell Update Packages (DUPs) were pushed to the default firmware repository last night.

Follow the normal setup procedures here: http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/firmware, and you will get the basic set of firmware-tools packages for your system. To get full use of the converted DUPs, also install "dell_inventory_collector". I will shortly have this package automatically pulled in, but I still have one outstanding issue I want to nail down before I drop it into the default install.
