[Pkg-alsa-devel] [RFR] templates://alsa-driver/{alsa-source.templates, linux-sound-base.templates}

Fri May 11 20:22:50 UTC 2007

Please find, for review, the debconf templates of alsa-driver.

This review will last from Sunday, May 06, 2007 to Wednesday, May 16, 2007.

Please send reviews as unified diffs (diff -u) against the original
files. Comments about your proposed changes will be appreciated.

Your review should be sent as an answer to this mail.

When appropriate, I will send intermediate requests for review, with
"[RFRn]" (n>=2) as a subject tag.

When we will reach a consensus, I send a "Last Chance For
Comments" mail with "[LCFC]" as a subject tag.

Finally, the reviewed templates will be sent to the package maintainer
as a bug report, and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as
a subject tag.

 If you choose this option, the ALSA drivers will be built with
 support for the isa-pnp driver.

Template: linux-sound-base/sound_system
Type: select
#flag:translate:3
__Choices: ALSA, OSS, default
Default: ALSA
_Description: Sound system to use:
 ALSA and OSS are alternative systems of drivers for
 sound hardware.
 .
 Selecting ALSA or OSS will enforce the use of such driver
 even in cases where both drivers exist.
 .
 Choosing the "default" option will leave this choice to the hardware
 detection mechanism and may depend upon the kernel version. Removing
 the linux-sound-base package effectively puts the system into
 "default" mode.
 .
 Choosing the ALSA sound system is strongly recommended.

Description: ALSA driver configuration files
 This package contains various configuration files for
 the ALSA drivers.
 .
 For ALSA to work on a system with a given sound card,
 there must be an ALSA driver for that card in the kernel.
 Linux 2.6 as shipped in linux-image packages contains
 ALSA drivers for all supported sound cards in the form
 of loadable modules. For either Linux 2.6 or Linux 2.4
 a custom alsa-modules package can be built from the
 sources in the alsa-source package using the make-kpkg
 utility (included in the kernel-package package). Some
 pre-built alsa-modules packages are available in the
 Debian archive. Please read the README.Debian file for
 information about loading modules.

 ALSA is the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture.

 OSS is the free version of the Open Sound System.

Architecture: all
Depends: ${misc:Depends}, make, gcc | c-compiler, dpkg-dev, debhelper (>= 5.0.37), debconf-utils, bzip2
Recommends: kernel-package, fakeroot, kernel-headers | kernel-source | kernel-source-2.4.27 | linux-source
Description: ALSA driver sources
 This package contains the source code for the ALSA drivers.
 The source code can be compiled into an alsa-modules package
 using the make-kpkg utility (available in the kernel-package
 package). Please note that the kernel headers must be
 installed to compile these modules.
