Title:
[FFe] sync current version of usb-modeswitch 2.1.0+repack0-1 from
Debian testing (Trusty has 2 years old version)
Status in “usb-modeswitch” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
The usb-modeswitch package that we have currently in Ubuntu 14.04 is totally
outdated - ver 1.2.3 is 2 years ago (not updated since 12.10 !!!).
7 releases have been pushed since then and added new features and bugfixes.
I therefore ask to sync 2.1.0 from Debian testing or sid - there are no bugs
reported against usb-modeswitch in Debian and there is lots of bugs in current
Ubuntu package :(
You can simply sync package from Debian - all Ubuntu-specific patches can be
dropped, because usb-modeswitch doesn't depend on tcl any more :)
Also new usb-modeswitch 2.x has upstart and systemd integration!
Here is debian/changelog since current Ubuntu release:
