Title: missing dep for 88x2bu.tcz in TCL15 x86_64 repo

I'm the maintainer for this extension. Turns out it needs a dep file, please. The extension's sole dependency is wireless-KERNEL.tcz

Hi Rich. I noticed one more thing. (You said "if you see something, say something" recently, so here you go  :) )

This extension's .info file states this:
Code: [Select]
                Note: firmware is embedded in the kernel module.
                (i.e., a separate firmware file is not needed.)
This information is out of date. Beginning with kernel version 6.2, separate firmware is needed for most devices that use this driver (the one that I use for testing seems to be an exception). Can you please delete those two lines from the .info file? It has caused confusion to some users.
