Bug#826141: RFS: skiboot/5.2.2-1 ITP: skiboot -- OPAL boot and runtime firmware for POWER
Hi,
new packaging is here :
https://mentors.debian.net/package/skiboot
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/skiboot/skiboot_5.2.2-1.dsc
on this one,
d/rules is a bit hacky, but this is due to the firmware nature of skiboot
I guess : we don't want to compile the firmware, just the userland utilities.
There could be some improvements of course for people not flashing the cards
and compiling the whole suite with a simple make and more specialised targets.
check-all-the-things :
- added a patch for the bunch of typos. Will send this upstream
- for ccpcheck foundings, we actually compile just a part of the tree which has
one cppcheck founding. Though there should be some reporting to be done for
all the rest of the source tree.
- I fixed d/copyright that was missing ccan/list/*
Lintians :
- added Documentation key in .service file
- fixed hardened build with a patch
- removed 1 patch not necessary
- one typo, integrated in patch above written after check-all-the-things
3 remaining :
P: skiboot source: debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature
P: opal-prd: no-upstream-changelog
P: opal-utils: no-upstream-changelog
