Description

Created attachment 11668 [details]
spec file I used to build a dkms package for my own use
sample spec file that can be used as a basis.
v4l2loopback includes a utility application that can be used to configure various parameters once the loopback device was created that is not built/installed in this spec - for my use it's optional, but it would be nice if a proper mageia package did include it.

26703 Thank you for the suggestion and the details. Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might, if there are no license or other legal issues, want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes. You Christian might also want to join the packager team to maintain this piece of software: see https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager Assignee:

kernel Since this is an dkms module, do we have someone who has experience in dkms modules and can import this package from fedora? tried to use https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danielkza/v4l2loopback-fedora/master/v4l2loopback.spec made some adaptions, but I think we have different scripts for dkms... Does some has a hint how this is done on mga? Checked nvidia390, but this looks very specific to adapt to our needs here why not try the spec file I used and attached to the bugreport already? works fine for me.... I've overread your attachment. I'll give it a try. why is the util omitted ? out of laziness really - in 0.12.5 it still is just a script that doesn't require much, but on current master it is a c file/needs to be compiled, and not sure how strict the packaging policies in Mageia are and whether it would be OK to just ship it as part of a dkms package or whether it would need to be split out. But real issue is that I don't have a use for it personally, I only use a single setting/device that I can just configure with module parameters…

mageia initial version submitted. wrong naming of dkms package. dkms packages should always be named dkms-<packagename> Thx Thomas. This was still the naming from fedora. Corrected. can we use #28488 as backports request? v4l2loopback was imported on Mageia, so closing as fixed! CC:
