** Description changed: [ Availability ] The package is already available in universe. [ Rationale ] The intent is to seed the package in the Ubuntu Server & Desktop for Raspberry Pi images. The purpose of the package is to warn about sub- standard or deficient power supplies on the Raspberry Pi 5 boards. [ Security ] The are no current CVEs for the project, but it is extremely new so this is no surprise. Canonical is the upstream for the project. [ Quality Assurance ] There are no currently outstanding bugs for the package in Launchpad (again, it's new). The project contains a full coverage test suite, that is run during package build, and includes a DEP-8 test which also runs the test suite. The package includes a d/watch file. [ UI Standards ] The user interface is fairly minimal. On server images, it operates as an motd plugin, outputting a few lines of text in the event of reset due to brownout, or power supplies that fail to negotiate a 5A feed. On desktop images, it provides notifications by way of the DBus-based notification service (which appear as notifications at the top-center of the GNOME desktop). All text output by the application is localizable although no translations currently exist in the package. [ Dependencies ] All runtime dependencies of the project are in main. [ Standards Compliance ] The package follows up to date Debian policy (4.6.2) and debhelper compatibility (13). The packaging format is 3.0 quilt, and in most other respects the packaging is very simple. [ Maintenance / Owner ] The package will be maintained by the foundations team. [ Background Information ] The project mirrors capabilities present in RaspiOS to notify the user of undervolt or overcurrent situations, resets caused by brownout, and power supplies that fail to negotiate the 5A that the Pi 5 requires for "full" operation (including USB/NVMe boot, and full provision of power to the USB ports). Unfortunately the RaspiOS implementation is tied to the wayfire panel in use on their desktop, so we could not directly re- use it. However, the logic involved is simple (check device-tree nodes on boot, monitor certain udev events), so this project re-implements it using the MOTD and DBus notification mechanisms instead (which should also operate reliably on all flavours of Ubuntu). + + Relevant links: + + * https://github.com/waveform80/pemmican (source code) + * https://pemmican.readthedocs.io/ (docs)
