Hi,
crda:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/crda/crda_1.1.1-1.dsc
svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-wpa/crda/trunk
Changes since last review:
* packaged independently
* contains patch (sent already for discussion) which ensures that runtime
verification always works when new wireless-regdb package is upgraded (thus
installing a new pubkey)
wireless-regdb:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wireless-regdb/wireless-regdb_2009.11.25-1.dsc
svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-wpa/wireless-regdb/trunk
Changes since last review:
* packaged independently
* regulatory.bin is always generated, a one time key is always generated. I do
not like the idea of installing the prebuilt regulatory.bin binary _at_all_.
This makes things simpler (eg, no need to workaround binary-includes) and
safer (no assumption needs to be made about integrity of John's system which
built and signed binary, modifications to db.txt always take effect)
If the review of patch + packages is positive will go forward with the ITP
red-tape (and add these to changelog of each package) and wishlist bug for
Linux source package maintained by debian-kernel for
CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY to be unset and to recommend/suggest crda.
Thanks, Kel.
