Hello, Carrying on with previous issues on packaging flashrom or an alternative thereof for flashing of flash chips (mostly used to free the BIOS on supported computers, replacing it with something like GNUBoot), I have found that one of the original developers of flashrom, Nico Huber, which had created the flashrom- stable fork (that subsequently was abandoned because of Coreboot politics) which we package in our repos has now properly created his own external fork. Hence I propose we have this in our repos.
All the previous reasons outlined on this mailing list for flashrom-stable and in issue #3493 still apply. The only thing I have not included in this PKGBUILD is a 'replaces' clause, as I'm not sure if that should be done or not in this case (and I leave that to the distro maintainers' discretion). -- Kind Regards, Wael Karram.
