Hi,
yesterday I brought fso-abyss and its libraries up-to-date. I use solely abyss
since my initial posts in April and did not have any hickups at all with it.
I have applied all (hopefully I didn't miss any) suggestions Nikita gave me
while sponsoring the fso-usaged package chain to abyss and its dependencies
and think it would be helpful to have this in place before a new vala-versions
eventually breaks everything again.
I also pushed a comment-block with the needed config-change to openmoko-file-
config.
So if anyone (Nikita again?) could look over libfsotransport, libgsm0710,
libgsm0710mux and fso-abyss and sponsor the upload I would be delighted :-).

On a sidenote: fso-gsm0710muxd had defaults for usage with calypso modems in
its code, so I have adapted the abyss config to also default to calypso-values.
Other modems would need (as with the old muxer) changes according to the modem
type. But I don't think this will cause any problems as abyss will be replaced
by fsogsmd before high numbers of devices with non-calypso gsm-modems will be
running debian. :-)
Also in April some config-scheme was suggested (based on udev) to support
different modem configurations but I also do not think this would be necessary
for abyss because of the fsogsmd switch sometime in the future which links
directly to libgsm0710mux and moves the configuration to frameworkd.conf.

Thanks
