Dear maintainers,
although I really appreciate your effort to bring an updated fwupd to
bookworm, yet you have sacrificed the modem-manager plugin because unlike
libqmi-glib-dev the dependencies libmbim-glib-dev and libmm-glib-dev are
missing in debian/control which results in [1]:
Dependency mm-glib skipped: feature plugin_modem_manager disabled
Dependency qmi-glib skipped: feature plugin_modem_manager disabled
Dependency mbim-glib skipped: feature plugin_modem_manager disabled
I understand that the package modemmanager would need to be updated to
version 1.22.0-3~ at least because of
libmm_glib = dependency('mm-glib', version: '>= 1.22.0', required:
get_option('plugin_modem_manager'))
in plugins/modem-manager/meson.build:1 [2] which in turn would require to
also update the packages libmbim to version 1.30.0-1~ at least and libqmi
to version 1.34.0-2~ respectively.
Could you please consider to update modemmanager together with the
libraries libmbim and libqmi for bookworm-backports at least and then
provide a feature complete version of fwupd in bookworm-backports as
an option?
Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
Thomas Uhle
