[PATCH 0/8] gnu: libftdi: Update to 1.5; other improvements. |
Date: |
Thu, 7 Sep 2023 11:43:23 -0400 |
This patch series updates and improves the package for libftdi, a library for
communicating with USB-to-serial adapter ICs from FTDI.
The patches
- Refresh gently the formatting of the package;
- Disable the building of example programs, which aren't installed anyway;
- Enable the building of libftdi's ftdi_eeprom utility, its bindings for C++
and Python, and its API documentation; and
- Update libftdi to its latest version, 1.5.
I've kept the package in its own module as moving it to embedded.scm, where it
probably belongs, triggers the circular-dependency problem described in issue
65716.[0]
I've tested this on AArch64 and x86-64 with an FT232H module and everything
appears fine. All of libftdi's 14 dependents continue to build with the
exception of arachne-pnr, an existing failure.[1]
