  • Bug#1104005: unblock: displaylink-driver/6.1-2

    From Thorsten Alteholz@21:1/5 to All on Thu Apr 24 00:40:02 2025
    XPost: linux.debian.devel.release

    Package: release.debian.org
    Severity: normal
    Control: affects -1 + src:displaylink-driver
    User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
    Usertags: unblock

    Please unblock package displaylink-driver

    [ Reason ]
    This package supports docking stations with DisplayLink technology,
    which basically provide a virtual graphics card that lets you extend
    the screen according to one's wishes.
    The package would be nice to have in Trixie as more and more docking
    stations now have this technology added.

    [ Impact ]
    It's a single, new package in non-free (it needs a binary blob), so the
    impact is pretty minimal.

    [ Risks ]
    Fairly minimal, since it has no rdeps.


    unblock displaylink-driver/6.1-2



    Thanks!
    Thorsten

    Unblocking for the additional hardware support.
