Hi, Nick

 I've actually built a package based on 0.5.3 which fixes this (and hence
 a number of other USB driver requests in the BTS here).  I created this
 package myself as I needed 0.5.3 for compatibility with an embedded
 system I am working on.  I need to tidy it up a bit before it would be
 fit for Debian, but I'll add a link to this bug when done.  I hope it
 might be useful to you.
   
Thanks. Lcdproc is in much need of some care, and could use some helping
hands.
If you shared the package soon, I can help with getting it in proper shape.

Regards,

J.L.

Thanks !  I've put the package on mentors, it should be dgettable from
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/lcdproc/lcdproc_0.5.3-1~njl50.1.dsc

I moved the USB and other special drivers into a new lcdproc-extra-drivers
package so that embedded use doesn't need the extra run-time dependencies.
Please feel free to use as little or as much as you want of the packaging.

Nick

Bug#579059: lcdproc: USB drivers not being built

2010-04-24 Thread Nick Leverton
Package: lcdproc
Version: 0.5.2-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Although the package Build-Depends on libusb-dev, the configure system
also needs pkg-config in order to find the actual library and its
headers.  Without a Build-Depends on pkg-config, the USB drivers and
other non-serial drivers are not being built.

I've actually built a package based on 0.5.3 which fixes this (and hence
a number of other USB driver requests in the BTS here).  I created this
package myself as I needed 0.5.3 for compatibility with an embedded
system I am working on.  I need to tidy it up a bit before it would be
fit for Debian, but I'll add a link to this bug when done.  I hope it
might be useful to you.
