Not sure if anyone ever answered to this post (?), but just in case:

Not necessarily, no. For most devices that need to upload firmware or
bitstreams in order to be usable, we have scripts in the sigrok-util
repo which can extract the required data from the vendor software.

This allows users to extract the required files from their own copy of
the vendor software, place it in a place where libsigrok looks for
firmware (and the respective libsigrok driver will then upload it).

Please feel free to join us on IRC (#sigrok on FreeNode) for more
discussions / help, etc.


Cheers, Uwe.
