Finally getting around to weston-init issue I highlighted a while
back and there's only one real issue preventing us from reusing
the base weston-init recipe -- our touchscreen auto-configuration
script.
That script has to have root access to setup and reload udev rules
and as we know setuid won't work for shell scripts.
I propose we rewrite it in something that can use setuid (perl or
c or something of the sort). I'm currently looking at perl as
there's already quite a few core recipes that rdepend on it.
Then we just need to inject it into the runWeston script and
adjust the two init scripts to point at that.
Any concerns or objections?
Why not just drop out that old touchscreen script, it is a
non-standard way of doing
this task and should be removed.
Andrew
It's non-standard, but that's because there really isn't a good
standard for calibrating touch screens under Weston. AFAIK this is
still useful.

This seems like the standard ^^
Andrew
That does save the config for the user running weston. Currently our
script saves and loads the config for all users. This could
technically be seen as a regression, but it doesn't seem that bad to me.
Better question than does it provide "any benefit at all": Does the
benefit outweigh the hacky-ness and effort needed to maintain
and document it?..
Andrew
I would say no, it doesn't outweigh the hacky-ness. Our script
force-reloads Weston adding an unnecessary delay for every recalibration.
Denys, any input here? Anyone you know of expecting this behavior
downstream?
