[SRU] Update firmware to support autofocus

Backport of 2.0 for mantic

Backport for jammy

Backport to focal

I subscribed the ubuntu-sponsors

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Subscribing ~ubuntu-xilinx as this was previously maintained by them afaict and regular patch pilots like me don't have the knowledge to judge this or what their plans are, if any.

The debdiffs are unfortunately rather pointless given they just list "Binary files blah and blah differ", i.e. they can't be used to build the package for sponsoring. I see there's a jammy build in the test PPA, but this will need fixing in noble before backporting anywhere else. I would suggest providing a PPA containing a build for each affected release (or a git repo with a branch per affected release), but I'm afraid debdiffs won't be any use here.

I've targetted the series according to the debdiffs provided, but I'll leave this marked "Incomplete" until a noble source package can be provided.

As noted, there is currently nothing here to sponsor. Unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors, please resubscribe when there is something that can be upladed.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your comments.

I have added a package for nobel and a package for jammy in the following PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~joshipallav/+archive/ubuntu/pre-release/+packages

Please let me know if anything else is needed.

As for the target. This package is only targeted for jammy and nobel, we don't expect it to be available in mantic or focal. So please drop the support for those distributions.

I've set focal to "invalid", but I'm not sure we can support skipping a release for a package. I *think* I'm right in saying that upgraders have to pass through interim releases for as long as they exist, which would force the removal of this package upon people moving from jammy to noble (until mantic EOL's).

Added a mantic package in the same PPA.

Okay, this looks good, sponsoring packages from PPA.
