Main Inclusion Report for libffado

Requirements

  1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libf/libffado/; available for i386 and amd64 architectures.

  2. Rationale:

    • provides library for support of FireWire based audio devices

  3. Security:

    • CVE entries: none

    • Secunia history: none

    • Any binaries running as root or suid/sgid ? Any daemons ?
      • do not know

      • do not know

    • Network activity: does it open any port ? no

    • Does it handle incoming network data ? no

    • Does it directly (not through a library) process binary (video, audio, etc) or structured (PDF, etc) data ? no

  4. Quality assurance:

    • In what situations does the package not work out of the box without configuration ? n/a

    • Does the package ask any debconf questions higher than priority 'medium' ? no

    • Debian bugs: (mention any that are particularly relevant, and any showstoppers) None found for libffado, libffado-dbus-server, libffado-mixer-qt4, libffado-tools, libffado-dev or libffado1

    • Maintenance in Debian is frenetic/vigorous/calm/dead ? Maintenances in Debian appears to be vigorous

    • Upstream is frenetic/vigorous/calm/dead ? There appears to be vigorous activity upstream

    • Upstream bug tracker: (mention any particularly relevant or critical) no noticeably relevant or critical bugs

    • Hardware: Does this package deal with hardware and if so how exotic is it ? This package does deal with hardware, but none is exotic

    • Is there a test suite in the upstream source or packaging ? Is it enabled to run in the build ?
  5. UI standards:

    • User-visible strings are internationalized using standard gettext system ?
    • Package with translatable strings builds a PO template during package build ?
    • End-user applications ship a desktop file ?
  6. Standards compliance:

    • FHS, Debian Policy compliance ?

    • Packaging system (debhelper/cdbs/dbs) ? Patch system ? Any packaging oddities ?
  7. Dependencies:

    • libc6 (>= 2.4)

    • libexpat1 (>= 1.95.8)

    • libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1)

    • libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.12.0)

    • libglibmm-2.4-1c2a (>= 2.19.8)

    • libiec61883-0 (>= 1.2.0)

    • libraw1394-11

    • libsigc++-2.0-0c2a (>= 2.0.2)

    • libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1)

    • libxml++2.6-2 (>= 2.24.0)

    • libxml2 (>= 2.6.27)

    • Are these all in main ? yes

  8. Maintenance:

    • How much maintenance is this package likely to need ? (Simple packages may largely take care of themselves; complex packages will need dedicated developers paying attention to them.) Little maintenance should be required

    • Who is responsible for monitoring the quality of this package and fixing its bugs ? Are they Ubuntu or Debian developers ? Upstream (FFADO) developers along with Ubuntu developers

    • Who is the package bug contact in Ubuntu? (Needs one if its a nontrivial package which does not fully maintain itself through Debian) Ubuntu Studio developers

  9. Background information:

    • The general purpose and context of the package should be clear from the package's debian/control file. If it isn't then please explain. It should already be clear

    • What do upstream call this software ? Has it had different names in the past ? Upstream calls this software FFADO (Free FireWire Audio Drivers). It was previously know as FreeBoB

  10. Internationalization:

    • Are graphical applications translatable? Do they support gettext?
