Bug#982250: Update to mmsd version numbers

2021-03-25 Thread Christopher Talbot
Hello,

Per a suggestion, I changed the version numbers a bit to be less
confusing.

v0.1-1 is the upstream packaging of mmsd, and can be found here:

https://salsa.debian.org/kop316/mmsd/-/tags/v0.1-1

v0.1-3 is the packaging of mmsd that includes all of the patches that I
have been working on in my fork:

https://salsa.debian.org/kop316/mmsd/-/tags/v0.1-3

Bug#982250: [Debian-on-mobile-maintainers] Upstream Efforts

2021-03-22 Thread Christopher Talbot
Hello,

Per this discussion, I created Debian packaging for upstream mmsd:
https://source.puri.sm/kop316/mmsd/-/tree/debian/latest

Commit f4b8b32477a411180be1823fdc460b4f7e1e3c9c (the commit before
adding the Debian Packaging) is in sync with 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ofono/mmsd.git (upstream)

There is only one patch, and it removes a compiler flag (-WError). 
It is required to allow mmsd to compile.

Bug#982250: TAG: mmsd-mm -- mmsd is a lower level daemon that transmits and recieves MMSes. It works with both the ofono stack and the Modem Manager stack. This packaging only works with modem manager

2021-02-09 Thread Christopher Talbot
Good Morning Evanelgos,

I agree with you! I think this would be excellent to have the 
DebianOnMobile team to maintain. I have been working with several
memebers of that team to get it packaged for Debian (which has been 
greatly appreciated!).

I also want to call out that I have contacted the upstream devs
to get my patches into upstream:

https://lists.ofono.org/hyperkitty/list/of...@ofono.org/thread/CVOWCDC7H4G4F3N4RTUPPLOTJQ7LCHDY/

However, in an unrelated conversation with their team, they mentioned
that mmsd upstream has not been maintained in at least 8 years. I 
mention this because I would appreciate guidance on the best course of 
action in case the patches do not get upstreamed (hope for the best,
prepare for the worst).

Bug#982250: TAG: mmsd-mm -- mmsd is a lower level daemon that transmits and recieves MMSes. It works with both the ofono stack and the Modem Manager stack. This packaging only works with modem manager

2021-02-07 Thread Christopher Talbot


Package: wnpp
Severity: ITP

mmsd-mm mmsd is a lower level daemon that transmits and recieves
Multimedia Service Messages. It works with both the ofono stack and the
Modem Manager stack. This packaging only works with modem manager.

The original upstream is here: 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ofono/mmsd.git

and my package is maintained here:

https://source.puri.sm/kop316/mmsd/

The "Master" Branch is the same as the upstream branch:
https://source.puri.sm/kop316/mmsd/-/tree/master

and all of my patches are maintained in the "ModemManager" branch:
https://source.puri.sm/kop316/mmsd/-/tree/ModemManager

The Debian packaging is here:
https://source.puri.sm/kop316/mmsd/-/tree/debian/modemmanager/latest

To the submitter's knowledge, no other package exists that does this,
and MMSD is not packaged for Debian. In addition, to the submitter's
knowledge, no stack exists in Modem Manager that supports MMS.

As of now, the submitter has been working primarily alone, but has had
the support of both the Mobian community and the Purism Community. The
Submitter will welcome co-maintainers, especially for the Ofono side of
the packaging/testing.
