Source: u-boot Version: 2014.04-2 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
Please consider shipping the package with Cubietruck support enabled. Cubietruck support has been merged upstream recently (post 2014.07-rc2). (Look for patches by by Ian Campbell if you'd rather considering backporting the commits instead of using a git snapshot). Work has already been done on the Debian kernel to make it usable on a headless Cubietruck and will be in the next experimental upload (which is imminent), see Bug#749484 for more information on this. Packaging a git snapshot for experimental for now would be appreciated while waiting for the final v2014.07 release. What is needed: ===================== Merge a recent upstream git commit (ie. 3fe1a8). Drop or rebase patches which no longer applies (ie. cubox-i patches, other patches that are now included in new upstream). Add something like this to debian/targets: armhf Cubietruck u-boot.img spl/sunxi-spl.bin u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin For extra bonus points also enable FEL mode, possibly like this: armhf Cubietruck_FEL u-boot.img spl/sunxi-spl.bin u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin (Note: building u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin should be enough really, other targets just included for following the general style and someone might find them useful...) ...
