Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
Hi mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package igb.
* Package name : igb
Version : 5.3.3.2-1
Upstream Author : Intel Corporation
* URL : http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/
* License : GPL-2
Programming Lang: C
Description : dkms source for the igb network driver
It builds this binary package:
igb-dkms - dkms source for the igb network driver
The package is on m.d.n : http://mentors.debian.net/package/igb
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/igb/igb_5.3.3.2-1.dsc
More information about igb can be obtained from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/ or
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/13663/Network-Adapter-Driver-for-82575-6-82580-I350-and-I210-211-Based-Gigabit-Network-Connections-for-Linux-
You can also check the ITP:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=804258
The package is needed because the in-tree driver doesn't have advanced features
such as interrupt throttle,
multiqueue or Large Receive Offload.
As far as I can see, there is no firmware blob loading that should prevent
including it in main, but if
I'm proven wrong I'd settle for a non-free upload.
Note that I already have a sponsor for my other packaging work (as a member of
the perl pkg team),
but this particular package obviously doesn't belong to this team, hence this
RFS.
Also, I use git-buildpackage for the packaging work. For now, the Debian
packaging is hosted on github
(see Vcs-* URL in the package). I'd like to move it to anonvcs.debian.org, but
I'd need my sponsor to create
the repository in collab-maint. Even if you don't want to sponsor the package,
I'd be glad if you could create
this repo.
Cheers,
