$ uname --all
Linux bar.home 6.1.75-vendor-rk35xx #1 SMP Thu Jul 25 14:36:35 UTC 2024 aarch64 GNU/Linux

$ dpkg --print-architecture
arm64

$ echo $G_HW_MODEL_NAME
NanoPi 6 series (aarch64)

Steps to reproduce

1. Install armbian-firmware

Expected behaviour

• Error loading bluetooth drivers for my usb dongle, the following is visible with dmesg: Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: firmware file rtl_bt/rtl8761bu_fw.bin not found
• I expect to see the drivers at rtl_bt - kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git - Repository of firmware blobs for use with the Linux kernel

Actual behaviour

• rtl8761bu_config.bin and rtl8761bu_fw.bin are missing

Extra details

• The bluetooth adapter had been working with earlier kernel versions, I don’t know which specific update caused it to stop working.
• If I download them directly from the kernel source tree into /usr/lib/firmware/rtl_bt then I’m able to use my usb bluetooth adapter.
• The specific bluetooth adapter is this Edimax BY-8500 from Amazon.
