Package: irda-utils Version: 0.9.18-6 Severity: normal
The package description mentions findchip, but findchip is only included in i486-linux-gnu binary packages. There are two issues here: 1) Shouldn't the tool also be included on AMD64 machines? There shouldn't be any difference in the infrared devices between AMD64 and i386. (To make it compile, I had to exchange asm/io.h for sys/io.h in findchip.) 2) The package description should mention that findchip isn't included on all architectures. Otherwise, people install irda-utils to test if there is infrared available on their machines, just to find out that findchip doesn't exist. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages irda-utils depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.17 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.7-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii makedev 2.3.1-84 creates device files in /dev ii module-init-tools 3.3-pre11-4 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii setserial 2.17-44 controls configuration of serial p ii udev 0.114-2 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages irda-utils recommends: ii openobex-apps 1.3-3 Applications for OpenOBEX -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
