Hi,

phodina <phodina <at> protonmail.com> skribis:

> I attempted to add also Gnome GUI but for some reason the pkgconfig in meson is not detecting the fwupd even though that when ran manually it finds it.

Hmm maybe we should discuss that separately.

Hello!

fwupd can be used to install firmware cab files manually in this state, these
cab files could be built by other GNU Guix packages for firmware such as:
<https://github.com/meklort/bcm5719-fw> ; It has the advantage that it contains
automation for updating firmware of lots of hardware.

I also sorted the patch list using "sort-lines" Emacs function, because it was
easier for me to insert the fwupd patches without having to sort alphabetically
by eye.

Thank you

Léo Le Bouter (2):
  gnu: Sort patch list alphabetically.
  gnu: Add fwupd.
