Bug#496873: ITP: pure -- functional programming language based on term rewriting

Oops :-( Sorry. I've got this taken care of, to some extent in the package that I've been working on. I just didn't put it in the ITP report. Basically, here is a copy-and-paste from the Pure website: Pure is a functional programming language based on term rewriting. Its core is actually purely algebraic and purely functional, but the name can also be taken as a recursive acronym for the Pure Universal Rewriting Engine. Pure has a modern syntax featuring curried function applications, lexical closures and equational definitions with pattern matching, and thus is somewhat similar to languages of the Haskell and ML variety. But Pure is also a very dynamic language, and is more like Lisp in this respect. The interpreter has an LLVM backend to do JIT compilation, hence programs run blazingly fast and interfacing to C modules is easy. As a language which uses general term rewriting as its underlying computational model (instead of the lambda calculus, which most other functional programming languages are based on), Pure also offers the symbolic evaluation capabilities which you'd expect from such a language. Pure is closely related to the author's Q language and is slated to eventually become its successor, since it offers many new and powerful features and programs run much faster than their Q equivalents. (OTOH, Q still offers many more library modules right now. Most of these will eventually be ported to Pure, but this will take some time.) The package name and the long description need to clearly explain what the package can do and why anyone should want to install it. It should also explain term rewriting which is not clear to me from what you have provided so far. I think term rewriting would be kind of hard for me to explain, but I'll give it a shot. The programmer specifies rewrite rules, which are compiled to do efficient pattern matching and substitution on abstract syntax trees. The rewrite rule looks like this: pattern - expression if condition The pattern matching can be fairly sophisticated, like other languages such as Prolog and Erlang and other functional languages. The expression simply rearranges and evaluates variables/constants/sub-trees which were matched by the pattern. condition is a guard which checks for situations that cannot be handled by pattern matching alone. As Pure (and Q) demonstrate, you can actually make whole entire programming languages based on this idea of term rewriting. I think I am nearly ready to do a request-for-sponsor on the debian-mentors list if there is nothing further to do on this ITP report. Thank you for your comments to help me out since I am very new to this. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

There's some code in common/rtmp_init.c that's inside #ifdef BIN_IN_FILE that tries to get the firmware from a file, and falls back to the contents of firmware.h. BIN_IN_FILE is not defined, and so it unconditionally uses firmware.h. I have had a quick try at enabling BIN_IN_FILE, and defining RTMP_FIRMWARE_FILE_NAME to point to common/rt2860.bin, and according to the debug output it worked. I can't be certain though, as it still has firmware.h compiled in as a fallback and unless you power-cycle you can't be sure that the previous download has been lost. Someone keen could probably convert it to use the proper kernel firmware loading infrastructure. The code that does this seems to be quite localised in common/rtmp_init.c.
