[arch-dev-public] RFC: crda PKBUILD
by Thomas Bächler 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

Linux 2.6.28 will support a new wireless regulatory domain infrastructure. Instead of the limited number of hardcoded regulatory domains in cfg80211 (EU, JP, US), there will be a userspace daemon that manages regulatory domains. We could still enable the "old" regulatory domain in the kernel. However, I would like to disable it, so kernel26 will have dependency (or optdependency) on crda (as would compat-wireless, if someone builds it with the new regulatory framework enabled). The package includes the crda and regdbdump binaries, as well as a binary regulatory.bin database and a udev rule. John Linville's RSA public key is hardcoded in both crda and regdbdump, so they will only accept regulatory.bin files signed by him. (The build system allows to include other public keys and the data to build the regulatory.bin is publicly available.) I am attaching the PKGBUILD for crda. # $Id: $ # Maintainer: Thomas Bächler <thomas(a)archlinux.org> pkgname=crda pkgver=0.9.4 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Central Regulatory Domain Agent" arch=(i686 x86_64) url="http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA" license=('custom') depends=('libnl' 'libgcrypt' 'udev') makedepends=('python-m2crypto' 'git') source=(http://wireless.kernel.org/download/crda/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.bz2) md5sums=('dddd9c0f08e7e447a29fc5b8eed5179f') build() { # Install crda, regdbdump and udev rules msg "Compiling and installing crda ..." cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver make crda regdbdump || return 1 make DESTDIR=$pkgdir install || return 1 # Install and verify regulatory.bin file msg "Downloading and installing the regulatory.bin file ..." cd $srcdir if [ -d wireless-regdb ]; then cd wireless-regdb git pull cd .. else git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-regdb.git fi install -D -m444 wireless-regdb/regulatory.bin $pkgdir/usr/lib/crda/regulatory.bin || return 1 if $pkgdir/sbin/regdbdump $pkgdir/usr/lib/crda/regulatory.bin > /dev/null; then msg "Regulatory database verification was succesful." else error "Regulatory database verification failed." return 1 fi msg "Installing license ..." install -D -m644 $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/LICENSE $pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/crda/LICENSE || return 1 }
