sgjava Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 I noticed that on the Duo I can select 5.5.0-rc6-sunxi in dev. Is there any idea when 5.5.0 will be the default release? Also, I noticed that there's no matching 5.5.x kernel source. I'm playing with linux-headers-dev-sunxi to see if I can compile libgpiod master which requires 5.5.0.

Werner Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Quote Is there any idea when 5.5.0 will be the default release? Default probably never since it is not a LTS kernel release. Anyway. The sources for sunxi/64 dev are pulled from megous most of the time: https://github.com/megous/linux/blob/orange-pi-5.5/Makefile If you build your own kernel package using the build script you will get a 5.5.0 package without RC since the sources are pushed to release already. You will get a matching headers and source package this way as well. Pre-made packages from apt should get rebuilt when the next minor version bump occurs.

For Allwinner sunxi-dev, the switch occurs on Dec 27th, but it stays with -rcX release candidates for almost 4 more weeks ... https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/17439c1f27727bc82a0df5e76b1b26cecb6ac8a3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgjava Posted February 7, 2020 Author Share Posted February 7, 2020 @martinayotte There were rc, but no 5.5.0-sunxi until I pulled down latest duo distro. Could have sneaked up on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
