Where can I report bugs with libfprint because with a VFS300 in a Dell Vostro 3500 (138a:0008) I can only get one pass when I run fprintd-enroll, and then nothing gets recognised

Firstly: Thank you. I tried the libprint-upstream-git first, without success. Secondly: Bus 001 Device 005: ID 138a:0007 Validity Sensors, Inc.

I created a package "libfprint-upstream-git" without additional patches. If you want just the code from upstream, please use that package.

Patch fixed, I've rearranged the definitions so hopefully that won't happen in the future. Of course it won't be accepted by upstream at least due to license incompatibilities. Why does that bother you so much (that you've even went as far as filing a formal orphan request)?

The patch won't apply anymore as upstream changed the code (phew, that wasn't expected). They added a driver for a Validity VFS0050 sensor. I'm not sure if there is a way to add compatibility with the devices in this patch. Anyway, I repeat my request to remove the patch and provide a clean upstream version of libfprint. You can create a separate package just for the patched version and send the patch upstream for review, of course. edit: Sorry, I just saw that the patch was already proposed and rejected. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97346

SammysHP commented on 2016-11-03 22:09 (UTC)

Then please rename this package so that I can upload a clean libfprint-git package.

intelfx commented on 2016-11-03 21:38 (UTC)

@SammysHP: The patch does not introduce new dependencies, and there is no official guideline forbidding such patches. Even if there was one, I would not maintain an extra patched package because I do not own such hardware. That said, I'll update the description to make this package easier to find.

SammysHP commented on 2016-11-03 21:17 (UTC) (edited on 2016-11-03 21:17 (UTC) by SammysHP)

Can you please move the patch to a separate package? libfprint-git should stay upstream.
