Bug#617749: O: qcontrol -- hardware control for QNAP Turbo Station devices
Package: wnpp
I'm looking for a new maintainer for qcontrol. qcontrol is used for
hardware control on QNAP Turbo Station devices:
Allows to send commands to the microcontroller of supported devices,
for example to change leds or sound a buzzer.
Depending on the device it can also monitor for example for button
presses or temperature, with events triggering actions defined in the
configuration file.
The upstream developer of qcontrol has not been responsive in many
months.
The main functionality that's missing in the Debian package right now
is a daemon mode that would allow qcontrol to run all the time and
control the fan. A daemon mode has been added to upstream qcontrol
SVN but no new version has been made and it may need some more work.
Frans Pop has adapted the Debian package for the qcontrol from SVN, see
http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/qcontrol.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/svn/debian
Here's a list of things that should be done:
