ddcutil 1.1.0 was uploaded to mentors on 4/22. Per the sponsor (Andrey
Rahmatulin) it was not moved to sid because of the freeze for Bullseye.

>From the release information on ddcutil (http://www.ddcutil.com/release_notes/) it seems
Linux kernel 5.10 made changes. They are listed as "docking stations" but in my
experience also apply to directly connected HDMI and Thunderbolt displays.
Ddcutil 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 include workarounds for this kernel. On my system
bringing back the same capabilities I had under kernel 5.8, whereas with
ddcutil 0.9.9 on kernel 5.10 there was simply no device detected.
As 5.10 seems to be the default in the upcoming Debian release, it would be
very nice to get ddcutil updated as well.
I had no issue building ddcutil from source.
