It is my understanding that: Debian probably won't need to build the regdb from source most of the time so we can just ship the upstream regulatory.bin file most of the time. When we do, just adding a second public key to the CRDA pubkeys dir and using the corresponding private key (from outside the package) during the build process of wireless-regdb would be just fine. This would mean the maintainer of crda would also have to be the wireless-regdb maintainer. I assume the wireless-regdb is architecture-independent so this would work because the buildds do not build such packages. It is possible for users to add more public keys to the CRDA pubkeys dir and build their own wireless-regdb using their own private key. debian-volatile isn't an appropriate place for this because many stable users don't use volatile and it is fairly important they are kept up to date with this, kinda like the timezone database. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
