I understand why the linux-modules-extra and linux-image-extra packages aren't available in the repository.
Is there anything ethically wrong with rebuilding the kernel with rndis_host (CONFIG_USB_ETH_RNDIS) for USB device tethering? If not, maybe that should be introduced in the Trisquel 11 release of the kernel?

"With the next Linux kernel cycle we could see upstream disable their driver support for Microsoft's Remote Network Driver Interface Specification (RNDIS) protocol due to security concerns."

"For these reasons and others, ** USE OF RNDIS IS STRONGLY DISCOURAGED ** in favor of such non-proprietary alternatives as CDC Ethernet or the newer (and currently rare) "Ethernet Emulation Model" (EEM)."
