I like to disown since I do not actively use it and I am not familiar with kernel code. @ozz seems to be more familiar.

Anyone wanting to adopt? Please drop me an email and I will transfer ownership to you.

Regards!

@Dieter9,

thanks for the patch. I have added it.

It breaks compilation for 6.0 kernels, though.

Can you provide a patch that works for older and newer kernels? (There are still up to date kernels < 6.1 around, e.g. some -lts kernels.)

Dieter9 commented on 2022-12-29 09:24 (UTC)

Here is a patch, that makes tty0tty compile and running again on linux 6.1.

After update to Linux 6.1.1, tty0tty does nocht compile any more.

This package has adopted tty0tty-git, the comments up to tthis point came from tty0tty-git.

dreieck commented on 2022-06-14 11:09 (UTC)

I have made a proper package tty0tty-dkms-git wich addresses the issues mentioned here so far. And I submit a merge request here.

dreieck commented on 2022-06-14 10:35 (UTC)

I don't see where it uses an Apache license. The COPYING file is GPL2.

Why do you use GPL2/Apache2 as license?

dreieck commented on 2022-06-14 10:29 (UTC)

Please make a proper "pkgver()" function that creates proper version numbers, e.g. git commit count based if there is no proper release version.

A pkgver() which currently produces 1.2+41.r57.20220526.c0e85cf is:

pkgver() {
  cd "${srcdir}/${_pkgname}"

  _ver="$(git describe --tags | sed 's|^[vV]||' | sed 's|-[^-]*$||' | tr '-' '+')"
  _rev="$(git rev-list --count HEAD)"
  _date="$(git log -1 --date=format:"%Y%m%d" --format="%ad")"
  _hash="$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"

  if [ -z "${_ver}" ]; then
    error "Version could not be determined."
    return 1
  else
    printf '%s' "${_ver}.r${_rev}.${_date}.${_hash}"
  fi
}

Please rename your package to tty0tty-dkms-git (i.e. add -dkms), and add "tty0tty=${pkgver}" to the provides array.

Thanks for maintaining!

GPL2/Apache2 is no a license at /usr/share/licenses/common. Please use license=('GPL2' 'Apache') if you want to say it has both.
