[Bug 402874] [NEW] Candidate revision sl-modem_2.9.11~20090222-1ubuntu1

Wed Jul 22 05:20:07 UTC 2009

Public bug reported:

Hello,

  I'm not sure wether this should be a merge or a sync, the issue is as follows, the only remaining difference between Ubuntu & Debian packages is that Ubuntu removed sl-modem-daemon.modutils altogether, yet in Debian I only removed the alias lines, and the file got renamed to sl-modem.conf. The reason, is that the install lines in sl-modem.conf (formerly sl-modem-daemon.modutils) are needed to create the appropriate device nodes, when the respective kernel modules are loaded. The reason is that upstream code does not register a sysfs object to create the device automatically, probably it cannot even do so due to license issue (sl-modem is BSD licensed).
I have sent an email about this issue before, yet I got no reply: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu/2009-June/005910.html
