Hi all, I've been porting a lot of the gnome-packagekit functionality to gnome-software these last few months. One thing that used to work well, but I've not seen a bugreport about in *years* is the install-package-for-missing-firmware thing.
IIRC, udev used to call /lib/udev/firmware.sh which used to create a file in /var/run/PackageKit/udev with the missing firmware file name. I can't see any reference to this in udev-builtin-firmware and wondered if this was removed deliberately. If installing-a-package-for-missing-firmware is something you don't want to support any more, that's fine, just let me know and I can delete a ton of code in PackageKit and gnome-packagekit. It was a little-used feature, but a nice bit of polish that made more hardware work out-of-the-box. The "always install all firmware files, they are tiny" argument works for me as well, so don't be afraid of using that defence. :) Richard. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
