[elrepo] elrepo Digest, Vol 134, Issue 5

[GUIDROZ, BRYAN]

Just a follow up on the kmod-r8125 package you all built back in August.
It's been working great for a few months now.
No issues on my end.
The Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8125 2.5GbE Ethernet adapters on the
Odroid H2+ have been working perfectly with this package.
Appreciate your assistance.

Bryan
