Comment 1 Thierry Vignaud 2015-02-06 10:23:03 CET 
err...
Why are they there in the first place anyway?
We never ship them there in Mdv...
Comment 2 Thomas Backlund 2015-02-06 10:26:13 CET 
They atleast used to be used by hdt (the hardware info tool on classical iso)

update of pci.ids is simple, but modules.pcimap is not provided by kernels anymore, so thats another thing...
Comment 3 Thierry Vignaud 2015-02-06 10:33:17 CET 
Well, it needs to be ported to use aliases instead (like ldetect was)

I do support modules.alias.

We just have to copy the modules.alias in place and use this command line : modules_alias=modules.alias

Regarding the boot medium, we might have to rename that file to match the 8.3 of joliet.

So we can remove the deprecated pcimap.

Um, why not default to modules.alias ?

module.pcimap is long dead ...

If you dont want that upstream, we can carry the patch in mga

That's iso9660, joliet supports 64 unicode chars according to spec, and MS implementation allows 110 chars ...
 

and if you compare:

modules.pcimap
modules.alias

we actually get one char less :)

OK,

as for the pci.ids I think I'll make the buildystem unpack it on the mirrors every time we update ldetect-lst so it will stay updated.

Was something done for Mageia 5?
