Newer version of fwts 0.22.00 available

Hello

Thanks

@Fabio, it's already packaged and ready to go. I was slow in putting the PPA in the original bug report.

Were you planning on letting other packages build against the different libfwts* libraries? If so, it'd be good to also split out -dev packages with the source headers.

Daniel,

the intention of the libraries was for private use for the application and not for -dev only, since they are very tightly bound to the tool. Two of the shared libraries are two builds of the same ACPICA core with different build modes. They have a fwts specific shim to allow allow the tool to use the ACPICA core but also to hide a lot symbols to stop symbol clashes. Thus they are really for fwts usage only.

If I was intending to allow other packages build against these libraries I would first write some documentation, but that's outside the scope of this project at the moment.

Hope that clarifies things.

Colin

Thanks for the clarification.
