bb|hcbArsen, Ariadne  - what are your thoughts on releasing 3.2.11? I didn't get any feedback yet - be it positive or negative, so i'd rather get a neutral stance ;)02:07
ArsenI don't see why anything so far would be a significant change02:07
Arsenhave you ran the updated hwdb yet?02:07
bb|hcbI am running it on my desktop, also on one of my laptops and tbh have forgotten after installing...02:10
Arsenthat's a good thing02:11
Arsenone more change I'd like to see is removing the in-tree .ids02:11
Arsenin favor of hwdata in distributions02:12
Arsenhowever, i need to wake up in five hours and am way overdue on sleep, so that'll have to wait02:12
Arsenshould be pretty simple02:12
bb|hcbyou mean hwdb/*.ids?02:13
Arsenhttps://packages.gentoo.org/packages/sys-apps/hwdata02:14
Arsenyes02:14
bb|hcbI also need to wake soon, so my grep-fu may be low now, but these looks like unused02:17
bb|hcbMaybe there was some tool to generate the .hwdb files from them or that was done manually?02:18
bb|hcbAlso checked that these files are not installed in Devuan packaging02:21
Ariadnesure we can release 3.2.1102:21
Ariadnenobody has complained in alpine anyway02:21
bb|hcbI have merged one powerpc fix after pre2, which should be a no-op for any other arch02:28
Arsenhmm02:28
Arsenthose might be a leftover indeed02:28
ArsenI wonder what component of sysd wanted them02:29
Arsenwell, let's wait to figure that out and then release02:29
bb|hcbLet's wait for Arsen to check on fresh head about hwdb/*.ids and we can release02:29
bb|hcbFrom what I saw, they are unused, but I am only 99% sure ;)02:29
Arsenyeah..02:30
ArsenI saw people referencing it in gentoos bug tracker, though, though I had only glanced due to circumstances02:30
bb|hcbhttps://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/contents?page=1&file=%2Aid%2A&branch=edge&name=eudev02:30
bb|hcbIf I got that right, those are also not installed in Apline?02:30
Arsencould they be installed into _ids though02:31
bb|hcbno, as i said above, i suppose parts of them were used to (maybe) manually get some data and put it in xx-*.hwdb02:34
bb|hcbbut i see no trace of that process in the repo02:35
bb|hcbthere is hwdb.d/ids_parser.py and similar in systemd02:36
bb|hcbso syncing the resulting files should most probably be enough02:37
Arsenbb|hcb: you're right, they're only used to generate some of the hwdb15:32
Arsenthat can be removed15:32
Arsensam_: was hwids/hwdata ever involved in the eudev package?15:32
