Update thermald to 1.9 release

dptfxtract should be upgraded to 1.4.2 at the same time.

Thanks Mario, I've been tracking the progress of thermald for some weeks now, so it's on my radar. I need to also roll in some packaging improvements, so I'll try and get this done some time next week.

Colin

Please use the latest dptfxtract tool version 1.4.2.

@Srinivas, dptfxtract is a binary, so it can't be packaged in debian/ubuntu. Is there source?

It's carried in multiverse for that reason.

Ah, I didn't know that, thanks Mario. @Antony, how's the update of dptfxtract progressing?

I'm going to update it in these few days. The helper script will have to be adapted to the new conf file directory.

This bug was fixed in the package thermald - 1.9.0-1

dptfxtract 1.4.2-0ubuntu1 uploaded to https://launchpad.net/~anthonywong/+archive/ubuntu/for-review/+packages for review.
Colin, could you help sponsor this upload?

Sorry, I don't have per-package upload rights to dptfxtract, you need to ask a MOTU.

Reviewing the package in your PPA I do have a few comments that should be addressed.

1) It looks like the standards version has been downgraded. If being modified at all it should be bumped up to match standards version in Eoan. This should also be mentioned in debian/changelog
2) VCS-Git and VCS-Browser URLs shouldn't be updated to upstream, packaging isn't maintained there.
3) in dptfxtract-helper I'm wondering why do you need to switch to dptfxtract-static? Is there new dependency?
4) debian/rules changes look unnecessary to me, but should be mentioned in changelog if needed.
5) I think you should be updating the packaging at https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+git/dptfxtract, no?

Oops, I think I took the bionic source package and updated from there... You're right we have a git tree and it should be used, I will post the correct version later.

Re-uploaded to ppa:anthonywong/dptfxtract.
dptfxtract-helper uses the static build of dptfxtract as that will make backport to older ubuntu releases a bit easier, as the dynamic linked version may not work well in all environments.

This bug was fixed in the package dptfxtract - 1.4.2-0ubuntu1

dptfxtract (1.4.2-0ubuntu1) eoan; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release. (LP: #1838590)
