Hi Fabrice, does this mean that Lucid won't have flashrom 0.9.1+r964 regardless of any Debian package updates?
Maybe I should clarify the dmidecode "dependency". If dmidecode is unavailable, flashrom will spit out a warning message, but functionality will be at least on the level of any previous release or svn version. dmidecode is used for two purposes: - Increasing match confidence for mainboards with ambiguous PCI IDs. - Warning people against flashing if the machine is a laptop. Both are desirable, but flashrom is designed to handle a missing dmidecode gracefully. Admittedly the dmidecode warning message is not something people want to see, but if this depends on a speedy reaction, I'd say that the package with such a warning is a much better choice than the old version in Lynx-beta (IMHO flashing safety trumps user interface issues because a failed BIOS reflash is much more of a nightmare than any warning message). If there is time to push an updated package to Debian and still have the result in Lynx, even better.
