Package: seabios
Version: 1.11.1-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.1.2
Dear Maintainer,
I just noticed that the source tarball of seabios includes some compiled
binaries:
$ ls src/fw/*.hex
src/fw/acpi-dsdt.hex src/fw/ssdt-misc.hex src/fw/ssdt-pcihp.hex src/fw/ssdt-
proc.hex
In debian/rules, these files are moved away and rebuilt:
# move out shipped .hex files and rebuild them
mkdir -p build/src/fw
for f in ${FW_FILES}; do [ -f $$f.sav -o ! -f $$f ] || mv $$f $$f.sav;
done
rm -f ${FW_FILES}
make OUT=build/ ${FW_FILES}
touch $@
They should not be shipped at all, they should just be built when packaging.
