[SOLVED] amdnpu firmware package

Since the firmware packaging split I was looking at the linux-firmware repo, and noticed the amdnpu folder that's been there since kernel 6.14. I couldn't, however, find any mention of it in Arch's PKGBUILD (although I may have blundered its inclusion). Would it make sense to create an AUR package for that?

The npu firmware is in the 'other' firmware package.

$ pkgfile -rv ".*/amdnpu/.*" 
core/linux-firmware-other 20250613.12fe085f-6	/usr/lib/firmware/amdnpu/1502_00/npu.sbin.1.5.2.380.zst

Re: [SOLVED] amdnpu firmware package

Does anyone have any news on firmware version 6.15+ , especially for strix point npus? I think the windows development is a bit beyond the common firmware versions, around version 1.0.7.*, and I'm looking 1.0.0.166. I've been messing around but it's blocking some of the functionality.
