Package: eegdev-plugins-free Version: 0.2-9 Tags: patch User: p...@hungry.com Usertags: appstream-modalias
Here is a draft patch to add Appstream metainfo XML announcing the hardware handled by this package. The USB ID were fetched from one listed in debian/eegdev-plugins-free.udev. This should fix the 'appstream-metadata-missing-modalias-provide' lintian warning. Including this information in the package will ensure programs mapping hardware to packages using Appstream information, like the isenkram package, will know that this package is useful on machines where the hardware is discovered. The appstream metadata file can be checked using this command after package build: appstreamcli validate-tree --no-net --explain debian/eegdev-plugins-free diff --git a/debian/eegdev-plugins-free.install b/debian/eegdev-plugins-free.install index a4ffec9..1b16d80 100644 --- a/debian/eegdev-plugins-free.install +++ b/debian/eegdev-plugins-free.install @@ -1 +1,2 @@ usr/lib/*/eegdev/*.so +usr/share/metainfo/net.sourceforge.projects.eegdev.plugins.metainfo.xml diff --git a/debian/patches/1000-appstream-metainfo.patch b/debian/patches/1000-appstream-metainfo.patch new file mode 100644 index 0000000..1d75fdd --- /dev/null +++ b/debian/patches/1000-appstream-metainfo.patch @@ -0,0 +1,62 @@ +Description: Added AppStream metainfo XML with hardware provide info. + This allow isenkram to propose this package when the relevant hardware is + present. +Author: Petter Reinholdtsen +Forwarded: no +Last-Update: 2024-08-29 +--- +Index: eegdev-salsa/Makefile.am +=================================================================== +--- eegdev-salsa.orig/Makefile.am 2024-08-29 07:30:22.641891713 +0000 ++++ eegdev-salsa/Makefile.am 2024-08-29 07:30:22.637891670 +0000 +@@ -1,7 +1,11 @@ + ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4 --install + SUBDIRS = gnulib-local lib src/core src/plugins doc tests +-EXTRA_DIST = autogen.sh m4/gnulib-cache.m4 README_build +- ++EXTRA_DIST = autogen.sh m4/gnulib-cache.m4 README_build \ ++ net.sourceforge.projects.eegdev.plugins.metainfo.xml ++ ++dist_metainfo_DATA = net.sourceforge.projects.eegdev.plugins.metainfo.xml ++metainfodir = $(datarootdir)/metainfo ++ + install-usb-plugdev: + @echo "Installing 50-usb-plugdev.rules into /etc/udev/rules.d/ ..." \ + && $(INSTALL) $(top_srcdir)/auxconfig/50-usb-plugdev.rules /etc/udev/rules.d \ +Index: eegdev-salsa/net.sourceforge.projects.eegdev.plugins.metainfo.xml +=================================================================== +--- /dev/null 1970-01-01 00:00:00.000000000 +0000 ++++ eegdev-salsa/net.sourceforge.projects.eegdev.plugins.metainfo.xml 2024-08-29 07:32:15.143118549 +0000 +@@ -0,0 +1,32 @@ ++<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ++<component> ++ <id>net.sourceforge.projects.eegdev.plugins</id> ++ <metadata_license>MIT</metadata_license> ++ <name>eegdev-plugins-free</name> ++ <summary>Biosignal acquisition device library (free plugins)</summary> ++ <description> ++ <p>eegdev is a library that provides a unified interface for ++ accessing various EEG (and other biosignals) acquisition ++ systems.
