Public bug reported: Availability: These packages is available in Ubuntu maverick in universe on armel
Rationale: These are parts of the bootloader using on armel+omap and armel+omap4, and while we do not directly need this package installed, we do use files from the deb in the creation of the image within debian- cd for builds on this subarchitecture. Security: N/A: this package builds binaries which arne't executable on the host system; they're only used by the image build tools, and possibly by advanced users who want to replace the stock bootloader on these boards. QA: Package produces binary blobs that are installed to the bootloader partition, and has no user facing UI. There are no open bugs on any of these packages. UI Standards: N/A, no user accessible UI. Dependencies: All build-deps are in main. Packages do not directly depend on each other, but are only useful when paired with the x-loader and u-boot binaries that match the subarch Standards compliance: Packages are compliant Maintenance: Maintenance for all four packages is being done by the Canonical ARM Team, and the Ubuntu ARM Port Maintainers. Background information: x-loader and uboot are the stage 1 and 2 bootloaders for the TI OMAP 3 and 4 platform and are installed onto a VFAT boot partition as MLO and u-boot.bin respectively. We need these files on the image to make said image bootable without assistance from an in-NAND bootloader. ** Affects: u-boot-omap3 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: u-boot-omap4 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: x-loader (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: x-loader-omap4 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: u-boot-omap3 (Ubuntu Maverick) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: u-boot-omap4 (Ubuntu Maverick) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: x-loader (Ubuntu Maverick) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: x-loader-omap4 (Ubuntu Maverick) Importance: High Status: New ** Tags: armel ** Also affects: x-loader-omap4 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: u-boot-omap3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: u-boot-omap4 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: u-boot-omap3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: u-boot-omap4 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: x-loader-omap4 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: x-loader (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: u-boot-omap3 (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => maverick-alpha-2 ** Changed in: x-loader (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => maverick-alpha-2 ** Changed in: u-boot-omap4 (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => maverick-alpha-2 ** Changed in: x-loader-omap4 (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => maverick-alpha-2 -- [MIR] x-loader/x-loader-omap4/u-boot-omap3/u-boot-omap4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592045 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
