Subject: [bug#65807] [PATCH v2 0/9] gnu: libftdi: Update to 1.5; other improvements.
Date: Thu,  7 Sep 2023 12:37:09 -0400

Here's a v2 of this patch series that adds a commit updating the package's
source URL to use HTTPS instead of HTTP, silencing a warning from guix lint.
(There's always something...)

Everything else is unchanged.  Here's the original cover letter:

This patch series updates and improves the package for libftdi, a library for
communicating with USB-to-serial adapter ICs from FTDI.

The patches

  - Refresh gently the formatting of the package;

  - Disable the building of example programs, which aren't installed anyway;

  - Enable the building of libftdi's ftdi_eeprom utility, its bindings for C++
    and Python, and its API documentation; and

  - Update libftdi to its latest version, 1.5.

I've kept the package in its own module as moving it to embedded.scm, where it
probably belongs, triggers the circular-dependency problem described in issue
65716.[0]

I've tested this on AArch64 and x86-64 with an FT232H module and everything
appears fine.  All of libftdi's 14 dependents continue to build with the
exception of arachne-pnr, an existing failure.[1]
