Re: alsa-firmware - bug #597897

2011-09-30 Thread Simone Rossetto
Hello.

The Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/597897 is a RFP for alsa-firmwares.

I read every email related to this package on the debian-kernel mailing-list 
[1], but I
cannot understand the reason why those firmwares are not yet part of 
firmware-nonfree package.

However, I packaged the upstream source for my personal use, so I have the deb 
package
ready. I can ITP the bug #597897 but I don't know anything about autotools 
(used in the
sources), so probably if I become the maintainer I will not be able to solve 
package's
bugs related to autotools, but I can learn. If one DD can sponsor the package, 
I'll
suggest myself as the maintainer or co-maintainer if someone wants to help.


Best regards
Simone

I think the ALSA developers should talk to the maintainers of the
linux-firmware repository about adding the firmware blobs to that.

The latter maintainers are David Woodhouse  and
myself.

Hi Ben and others,

first thank you for taking care about this issue.

You can get latest tarball of alsa-firmware from here:
ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/firmware/alsa-firmware-1.0.24.1.tar.bz2

./cofigure make will build *.bin files in hdsploader dir.
Files digiface_firmware.bin, digiface_firmware_rev11.bin, 
multiface_firmware.bin, multiface_firmware_rev11.bin and rpm_firmware.bin
should be placed to /lib/firmware/hdsploader/ directory.
At least I have them installed there and it works fine for me and I think 
hdsploader search for firmware there.
Maybe somebody from pkg-alsa-devel can comment on this?

If you need get contact with upstream this should be right address: 
alsa-de...@alsa-project.org

best regards

mira

That's ok, I'll edit my package to install those files in that directory.

Hello Elimar, Jordi

I am original submitter of this bug [1] and I contact you as admins of 
pkg-alsa-devel
  
To be confused by your answer here, I would like to ask what is your attitude 
to the process of including missing alsa-firmwares to linux-firmware-non-free  
package?

I think it was quite natural that alsa-devel has been asked for opinion and 
help or am I wrong? 

Sadly this process seems to be stuck now :(

Best regards

mira

Why do post this to pkg-alsa-devel? To contact ALSA developers
please consider to add alsa-de...@alsa-project.org. What should
Debian pkg-alsa-devel do to kick off this process?

So what?

It was a recipient of the mail I was replying to.

Maybe you can tell me who looks after alsa-firmware upstream.

Hello firmware linux-team,

new upstream release of alsa-firmware is here
[11] ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/firmware/alsa-firmware-1.0.25.tar.bz2

And because the freeze of Wheezy is due in June [12]
I think it is right time to ask if there is a plan to include missing alsa 
firmwares to linux-firmware-nonfree for Wheezy?
[12] http://www.debian-news.net/2012/01/26/bits-from-the-release-team-2/

Or some obstacles exist?

Best Regards

mira
