The last I heard, Jeff Licquia had applied the patches you needed. Some
of those have been reverted in the latest CVS snapshot, but the
changelog explains all.
For example, it turns out a "di-discover" tool wasn't needed after all;
it was possible to pass arguments to the existing discover utility to
get output in the format desired by the d-i team.
* discover/discover/Makefile.in
discover/discover/didiscover.c
Remove didiscover.c. The effects of
didiscover --data-path --data-vendor
didiscover --data-path --data-model
are achieved with
discover -t --no-model
discover -t --no-vendor
Can you please refresh my memory on any other outstanding issues? I
will open tickets for them in Progeny's RequestTracker system.
