The appstream information is used to present package information to those that are looking for what to install, typically in graphical software helpers. The only user of the hardware information that I am aware of, is the isenkram system I wrote, which will trigger every time it see some new hardware inserted into the machine, look up packages claiming support for this hardware and pop up a prompt suggesting to install these packages. It can also look up already present hardware and identify firmware packages requested by the kernel. So if several packages use the same identifier, several packages will be proposed to the user. > I do not think there will be many SAM-BA in the wild, unless you are > working with a SAM91 dev board.

The consequence is that isenkram will propose to install lego related packages for this bord, which will confuse the user and not really help them in any way. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
