Hi everyone. I updated the package depends among other things. It's working for me so far on my FW16; please let me know if there are still issues with other laptops.

Hi, please use cmake in proper way so the build works on systems, where make is not the default cmake backend.

  cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr ..
  cmake --build .

Please add 'cmake' and 'libftdi' to makedepends.

As mentioned by @moparisthebest, needs some new dependencies. On my machine I got build errors due to missing libftdi

@ThirstyShark Check out the comments below if you have the time :)

Seems like there are commits going on the "old, unmaintained version of ectool" such as fwchargelimit option. The "new" Gitlab repo has not got the latest updates.

But oddly, where these new commits are going, the AMD version still doesn't work...

Also the note below about libftdi and cmake 100% needed for the Gitlab variant

Thanks for the updates! But this PKGBUILD needs these additions:

depends=('libftdi')
makedepends=('inetutils' 'git' 'cmake')

Hi @ThirstyShark, thanks for updating the package, works great on AMD now!

I will note that the repo change to a younger repo means that the package version has gone down - so you may need to manually upgrade this package as it will be initially considered a downgrade.

New installations of the package don't have to worry about this.

Hi everyone, thanks for the bump - I was on vacation, just saw the flag which reminded me to update the package. Let me know if there's any issues with the newer FWs now, I only have an 11th gen.

As a user of an AMD-equipped Framework 13 Laptop, I'd love to see this updated to the latest version mentioned by Talinx. The current version does not work.
