| tuxd3v | fsmithred, hello, you corrected by hand the path for 'FIRMWARE_DIR' in bluez package? | 00:53 |
|---|---|---|
| tuxd3v | for Qualcomm,Texas Instrument devices? | 00:53 |
| fsmithred | tuxd3v, I did nothing about firmware or bluez | 00:56 |
| tuxd3v | fsmithred, many thanks :) | 00:56 |
| fsmithred | for what? | 00:56 |
| tuxd3v | for your reply :) | 00:57 |
| fsmithred | bluez is not one of our forked packages | 00:57 |
| tuxd3v | yeah I understand that, but how could we correct it?I mean people will want to use their devices and for those it will check for firmware in thos places :/ | 00:58 |
| fsmithred | someone must volunteer to fork and maintain it | 00:58 |
| fsmithred | or get upstream to fix whatever the problem is | 00:58 |
| tuxd3v | I don't know if it was hardcoded on porpuse for debian :) | 00:59 |
| tuxd3v | maybe it could :/ | 00:59 |
| tuxd3v | yeah, I went on salsa.debian, and left a merge request with my patch, I don't know if its the best procedure, I tried on branch mainline | 01:00 |
| fsmithred | that's one way | 01:00 |
| fsmithred | bug report is another | 01:00 |
| fsmithred | then you find out if they care about fixing it or not | 01:01 |
| tuxd3v | does you know were to fill a bug report for debian? | 01:01 |
| fsmithred | bugs.debian.org | 01:01 |
| tuxd3v | good idea :) | 01:01 |
| tuxd3v | ho straightforward :) | 01:02 |
| fsmithred | maybe look at the changelog, too | 01:02 |
| fsmithred | they might have a reason for it | 01:02 |
| tuxd3v | ok, many thanks, I will :) | 02:27 |
| tuxd3v | fsmithred, I messed up :D | 02:39 |
| tuxd3v | I used the cli reportbug python program :/ | 02:39 |
| tuxd3v | and it is reporting bugs to devuan :/ | 02:40 |
| tuxd3v | LeePen, many thanks for your comment | 03:35 |
| Xenguy | Nevertheless | 03:50 |
| tuxd3v | Xenguy, well support for Cypress Bluetooth devices is urgently needed.. :9 | 03:56 |
| tuxd3v | :) | 03:56 |
| Xenguy | You go girl! | 03:57 |
| tuxd3v | We are in a hurry to have support for Cypress.. at least in the ARM world, but any arch will benefit :) | 03:58 |
| Xenguy | I have no contact at the moment, but keep searching | 03:59 |
| Unit193 | LeePen: Wow, congrats on DD! | 04:33 |
| Unit193 | Didn't even know you were going for it. | 04:33 |
| LeePen | Unit193: Thanks. | 11:13 |
| LeePen | Still waiting for my key to be added ;) | 11:13 |
| Unit193 | Just was. | 11:24 |
| LeePen | Excellent! | 11:55 |
| Xenguy | Congrats LeePen : -) | 14:23 |
| mason | LeePen: That's awesome. | 15:48 |
| gnu_srs | LeePen: Congrats :) | 16:14 |
| parazyd | LeePen: You got your key signed in debian's keyring? | 16:23 |
| LeePen | Thanks all. | 16:55 |
| parazyd | LeePen: Consider maintaining this? :) https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=974048 | 17:06 |
| parazyd | The counterpart is https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=974084 | 17:07 |
| LeePen | parazyd: debootstrap changes seem like a good idea in general. It isn't going to happen before bullseye is released though. | 17:16 |
| parazyd | Yeah | 17:17 |
| LeePen | Since you already have devuan-keyring packaged and on mentors, we should look at cleaning that up and getting it into NEW. | 17:17 |
| onefang | What did I just miss about debootstrap coz I was rebooting? | 17:17 |
| parazyd | If you agree with it, I can do what is necessary. | 17:17 |
| parazyd | onefang: My patches from last year https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=974084 | 17:17 |
| LeePen | I'll have a look through it. | 17:18 |
| parazyd | LeePen: Regarding devuan-keyring, I solved all issues, plus lintian. So either some DD signs my key, or we use yours. It doesn't matter to me honestly. | 17:18 |
| LeePen | Signing your key isn't enough. It will ultimately have to be uploaded by somebody in debian-keyring. Then it goes into NEW for approval by ftpmaster and then it gets built. | 17:19 |
| LeePen | Debian still builds from tarballs, not git. | 17:20 |
| parazyd | I'm talking about another usecase for the key | 17:20 |
| parazyd | https://salsa.debian.org/parazyd/devuan-keyring/-/blob/master/debian/rules#L12 | 17:21 |
| tuxd3v | parazyd, can you help devuan-arm to get a patch at least on armel,arm64? | 17:27 |
| tuxd3v | the package is 'bluez' | 17:27 |
| parazyd | I need more context | 17:27 |
| parazyd | oh crap i didn't autojoin | 17:27 |
| parazyd | Can you please recap there? | 17:27 |
| LeePen | parazyd: OK. Needs some thought. | 17:27 |
| parazyd | LeePen: ok. Thanks, and let me know when you can. | 17:28 |
| tuxd3v | ok, the Idea is to add support form Cypress Bluetooth devices as if they were Broadcomm | 17:28 |
| tuxd3v | currently bluez doesn't have support for Cypress devices.. | 17:28 |
| tuxd3v | all Raspberry PI's are left without bluethoot | 17:29 |
| tuxd3v | the Idea is to add a patch do the 'debian/patches' folder, and rebuild the 'bluez' package | 17:29 |
| parazyd | Is bluez already forked in Devuan? | 17:30 |
| parazyd | Also, have you sent these patches to bluez upstream? | 17:30 |
| parazyd | It would make most sense to backport IMHO | 17:30 |
| tuxd3v | the patch is here: https://paste.debian.net/hidden/5db8e178/ | 17:31 |
| tuxd3v | No its not forked, I sent the patch to salsa.debian: https://salsa.debian.org/tuxd3v/bluez/-/tree/master | 17:32 |
| tuxd3v | but it, if aproved, would take ages to come downstream | 17:32 |
| tuxd3v | and we need it like now :( | 17:32 |
| tuxd3v | parazyd, what do you mean by backport? | 17:33 |
| tuxd3v | build 'bluez' for the backports.. it could be | 17:33 |
| parazyd | tuxd3v: Send the patch to http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-bluetooth for review first. | 17:34 |
| parazyd | Then if it gets merged into bluez, we can easily make a backports package. | 17:34 |
| tuxd3v | the name of the patch is: cypress_bluetooth_broadcomm.patch | 17:34 |
| parazyd | Feel free to Cc me | 17:35 |
| tuxd3v | parazyd, thanks, can I attach the patch to the mail? Or should I sent the patch as text, in the mail? | 17:44 |
| parazyd | Ideally: git send-email --subject-prefix='PATCH BlueZ' --to linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org -1 | 17:46 |
| parazyd | Provided your commit is the git repo HEAD | 17:47 |
| parazyd | This applies https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.11/process/submitting-patches.html | 17:47 |
| tuxd3v | my patch is for userpace part of 'bluez' | 17:49 |
| parazyd | I meant that the etiquette and general guidelines apply. | 17:49 |
| tuxd3v | ho ok, many thanks | 17:49 |
| parazyd | You're welcome :) Let's get it reviewed and then see what's next | 17:50 |
| tuxd3v | ok, we already tested it in #devuan-arm channel, and it works for all devices :) | 17:51 |
| tuxd3v | it also doesn't brake compatibility with older devices | 17:51 |
| parazyd | Great, you can make a note of that in the commit message | 17:51 |
| tuxd3v | Its just to add more supported devices to bluez :) | 17:51 |
| parazyd | ok | 17:52 |
| parazyd | Try to be somewhat verbose in the commit message | 17:52 |
| parazyd | This will help reviewers | 17:52 |
| parazyd | You can edit it locally with git commit --amend. | 17:52 |
| parazyd | And remember to add a Signed-off-by | 17:52 |
| tuxd3v | humm this seems to be a herculean task :) | 17:53 |
| tuxd3v | heheh | 17:53 |
| parazyd | I can help you | 17:54 |
| parazyd | Just ask | 17:54 |
| parazyd | You'll thank me later when this gets accepted upstream btw :) | 17:57 |
| tuxd3v | :) | 17:57 |
| golinux | It's time folks | 20:32 |
| amesser_ | still one hour left? | 20:33 |
| golinux | Not here | 20:35 |
| golinux | Unless my time really screwed up | 20:35 |
| amesser_ | andi@zeus:~/Projekte/Linux/Packages/apt$ LANG=C TZ=UTC date | 20:36 |
| amesser_ | Thu Mar 25 19:36:01 UTC 2021 | 20:36 |
| golinux | Yeah, I'm old and confused . . . | 20:39 |
| amesser_ | there is no correlation between being confused and old :-) | 20:40 |
| amesser_ | I'm looking since days for a one of two devices I bought end of last year. I just can't remember where I put it. | 20:41 |
| fsmithred | you must say, "Found, found, found." over and over again while you are looking for it. | 20:42 |
| amesser_ | haha. | 20:42 |
| fsmithred | that's the only way to get it to return from that other dimension it went to. | 20:42 |
| amesser_ | I was already thinking it could have been stolen. But I'm not sure if I had left in garden shed or took it back home. | 20:43 |
| amesser_ | In the latter, it'll happily hidding in my mess here | 20:44 |
| rrq | wdq: I found a tor server on pkgmaster, and fiddled its conf; are you able to test? | 23:14 |
| Unit193 | LeePen: BTW, I would recommend configuring dput to reject certain dists from being allowed in ftp-master. I have an addition to dput that also allows one to blacklist version strings, eg 'devuan' from going to somewhere if that'd help. | 23:16 |
