- ndctl backport from Focal isn't really needed to build it (only a debhelper version change)
ndctl itself, correct, is not necessary. the current bionic ndctl package is fine. but package wise, from what I saw, libndctl6 (which I presume is built from the ndctl source) is a required dependency for ipmctl. Maybe I am not seeing everything in the machinery there, which is a valid response, I'm just noting what I observed while trying to install the Focal debs on Bionic. - are there any missing features in Bionic ndctl that disallow ipctl to work properly ? As far as I know, there are not, as I said, I had to install that as it was a package depenendency. dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libipmctl4:amd64: libipmctl4:amd64 depends on libndctl6 (>= 63); however: package libndctl6 is not installed. So the libndctl6 in Bionic won't work for libipmctl4 as it's version 61. so maybe that could be changed in packaging so that libipmctl4 can depend with any libndctl6 version, but I do not currently know if that causes issues with missing features or functions, or whatever. - want me to provide a PPA for you to test it ? Certainly. I have hardware to test with and am happy to help in any way I can to move this along. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1868882 Title: [SRU] Put ipmctl into Bionic (and update necessary deps) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ipmctl/+bug/1868882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
