I prepared another package: 1) set version to 20081215, the last commit to tools/env/ [1] 2) add a NEWS.Debian file, now fw_env.config requires a fifth parameter 3) add newline to EOF for qnap_ts101.config (this is mostly an aesthetic change, but it disturbed me...) 4) add openmoko_gta02.config, which I successfully tested [2] 5) imported the Debian package into a Git repository at [3] Timo, can you confirm that the new package works as well, please? Before uploading (I will *not* upload a source NMU), there are at least the following two issues to be fixed: a) check that it works on other devices (QNAP, Kurobox, etc.); I cc:ed Martin Michlmayr, who uploaded the last version and I guess still has some U-Boot-capable devices b) finalize the debian/changelog and debian/NEWS entries Per, Martin: I am not a boot loader expert, but uboot-envtools will be used by the Debian-on-Openmoko installer, thus I can help in maintaining the package as well as sponsoring, if needed.
