Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: trixie X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] Control: affects -1 + src:wireless-regdb User: [email protected] Usertags: pu
[ Reason ] Provide current information about national radio regulations to the Linux Wi-Fi stack. [ Impact ] Users may accidentally configure Wi-Fi hardware to use channels or power levels that are not permitted, or may be unable to use channels that are permitted. [ Tests ] - The signatures on regulatory.db are checked against the kernel trust list by an autopkgtest test case. - The database itself is identical to the version in unstable, and currently identical to the upstream version. [ Risks ] The package is fairly trivial. The only risk I see is that the new database could conceivably differ from the actual regulations in a more serious way. [ Checklist ] [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] This is a backport from testing/unstable, because every suite should get the latest rules. Upstream changes: - Updated the regulatory database (db.txt) following various national radio regulatory changes. - Regenerated the binaries and signatures (regulatory.bin, regulatory.db, regulatory.db.p7s) and checksum (sha1sum.txt) from db.txt. Debian changes: - Updated CI configuration - Refreshed upstream signing key - Updated watch file - Dropped obsolete build-dependency - Replaced use of dh_movetousr - Removed some obsolete text from README.Debian [ Other info ]
