[Bug 2085203] Re: [needs-packaging] foxconn-pc-services: Support for Foxconn WWAN modules

[Dave Jones]

The binary packaging builds lintian clean (with well-commented
overrides), which is nice to see! d/watch is present and successfully
indicates package is up to date with upstream. The package contains pre-
built binaries for a single architecture (amd64), but that's acceptable
given it's targetting specific laptops which will only support that
architecture. There's one (fairly extensive) patch but I see that's
actively being reviewed upstream, so there's a good possibility it will
disappear in a future revision.

All in all, I'm happy to sponsor this for plucky. There are a couple of
changes I need to make, but I'll make these during upload as they're
trivial:

* Remove ~ppa1 suffix

* Correct LP:# bug link in d/changelog

* Add XS-Autobuild: yes to d/control. This is simply because there's a
lintian error on source build (source-only-upload-to-non-free-without-
autobuild), but I think that's a false positive for Ubuntu (I don't
think we take any notice of XS-Autobuild). Still, there should be no
harm in adding this to suppress the error

Subscribing ubuntu-archive as AA review will be required for new
package.

  The package mainly provides "foxconn-foxflss-service", which is a
  binary-only file for FCC Unlock procedure, and will be used by
  ModemManager: https://modemmanager.org/docs/modemmanager/fcc-unlock/

  Also, the package foxconn-test-quick-suspend-resume is to allow modem

  The packaging will include modaliases, which is not available in
  Debian packaging.

  This package will be uploaded to multiverse due to non dfsg-free
  contents.
