Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH 0/2] Update usb_modeswitch
Date: Fri, 7 Sep 2018 12:08:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180907100836.GA4352@lenoch> (raw)

Hi,

although this little patchset does not completely solve all issues
with usb_modeswitch, it is worth applying anyway.

This package was moved to staging with Tcl it depends on. However
it is possible to use builtin Tcl interpreter and link helper
script statically with it. That avoids Tcl dependency and decreases
size footprint.

Unfortunately above solution fails for some configurations and a bug
was reported:

While it is possible to add local patch to solve this, I'm not sure
it is worth doing as it is over ~300k lines and quite difficult to
review. So I'd just suggest waiting for new upstream version with
a fix. In case anyone prefers patching package locally, please let me
know and I'll resend with patch.

Thank you,
	ladis
