Hello, Thanks for updating this tool :) I created a separate merge request for just the udev rules: #61 |
This DKMS script will be run when the package is installed. It will run the standard DKMS build steps (compiling the module against the current kernel version), and will additionally: - Load the module immediately - Configure the module to be loaded automatically at boot This is not handled by default by DKMS, because usually, kernel modules are associated with some hardware, and the hardware detection in the kernel will be enough to load the module. But, in the case of tty0tty, there is no associated hardware, and so, the module must be explicitly loaded.

Now I have removed that part from this pull request, so you can merge them independently. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This needs to be updated when/if a version 1.3 of tty0tty (orany other new version number) is released. I'm not sure if it is possible to extract this info from somewhere else, what would be considered appropriate here?

Appropriate would be discussioning it outside this merge request.
