* Package name : irda-dkms Version : 0.1 * URL : https://github.com/cschramm/irda * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : IrDA subsystem and device drivers The IrDA subsystem and device drivers got moved to staging and scheduled for removal upstream in Linux 4.14 [1] and consequently disabled in the Debian builds [2]. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/8/27/126 [2] https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=d12b3a11b2800489cde0be2d74872af04b5b8f36 As I personally do have a use case for IrDA and am sure that I am not the only one, I moved the code (from 4.15; not compatible to 4.14!) into a GitHub repository [3], converted the build system to Kbuild files, and added a DKMS configuration and a Travis CI configuration to check the build with current kernel releases. [3] https://github.com/cschramm/irda I already prepared the packaging files. See [4] for copyright and license. [4] https://github.com/cschramm/irda/blob/debian/debian/copyright
