Nah,
rpi-updategets its data from https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-firmwareThere used to be a big difference between what's in https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware and what's in https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-firmware (the latter used to also contain a bunch of files from the old
userlandrepo), but these days the difference is much smaller.There was a problem hiding this comment.
