[Pkg-electronics-devel] [Arduino] Uncompilable firmware

[Ignacio Losiggio]

Hi! I'm currently working to package the latest version of 
Arduino[1][2][3]
(wanting to comply with debian standards when it's ready).

After some time working with the IDE[1] i've put that on pause and 
started
work on the avr core[4][5].

I've managed to compile (almost) all the bootloaders, but the firmwares
require an specific and old version of LUFA (that even downloading and
hardcoding paths fails to build).

Does anyone have any knowledge on LUFA?

Is adding LUFA as a origin of my package a good solution?

Is it wrong if i have to heavily edit the build system?

The arduino-avr-core has binary files (.hex, .elf) and sourcecode
mixed. Is /usr/share/arduino-hardware a good place for the cores?
(arduino uses a hardware folder relative to it's instalation)

Thanks in advance
Ignacio
