In the future it would be ideal to package everything in Debian necessary to fully support hardware ledgers. However, as that is not likely to happen in the short term, I think it would be valuable to at least document what a user needs to add to get hardware wallets working in a README file installed with Electrum.
Yes it would be nice to have all these third party dependencies available. Not sure how feasible it is. Vendors could contribute them by themselves if they though this was useful....
Would you be willing to send me a list of what you have done to get hardware wallets working for you and which hardware wallets are supported by these steps?
I only own Ledger, and it was enough to do `pip install ledger_bitcoin[hid]` as specified in https://pypi.org/project/ledger-bitcoin/ to make it work again. I do not recall what I have additionally installed years ago when I first started using Electrum.
The problem is that after some time in the future, I'll need to do the same thing again, and hope I remember what's missing and not spam Debian bug tracker again :) .
