For some reason, on my PureOS install, /etc/resolv.conf was not a symbolic link to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf and was never updated.

Which version of Gnucash are you trying to build? libgoffice-0.8 is removed from Debian testing (which PureOS is based on), but there is a newer version of Gnucash (2.7.3) in the Debian Experimental repositories, which require libgoffice-0.10.

@tharvill Underlining this is not a (recent!) regression is helpful, thank you. I am fairly certain it's a somewhat structural problem with the Debian Installer generally which will require some work in Debian itself.

kakaroto added a comment to T315: Enable vboot.

<avph> KaKaRoTo: does purism have any plans on using vboot btw?
<KaKaRoTo> avph, I'm not familiar with it, so I never looked into it. I was asked that same question last week and I opened this task for it : https://tracker.pureos.net/T315
<KaKaRoTo> it's mostly about "what is it? what is it for? do we need it? can we enable it ? etc..."
<KaKaRoTo> avph, so if you're familiar with vboot and want to give us some pointers on that, I'd appreciate it
<nico_h> mostly for a secure update mechanism
<nico_h> so not every malware can write to the flash chip
<avph> well it won't run the malware mostly :)
<nico_h> um, scratch the latter
<KaKaRoTo> nico_h, how does it achieve it? needs a portion of the flash to be read-only, no ? does it use an IFD region for that ?
<KaKaRoTo> does it require a TPM or is it a way to get verified boot without TPM ?
<nico_h> Google uses the write-protection feature and /WP pin of the flash chips
<nico_h> I'm not sure if it requires a TPM (I think only for downgrade protections or something)
<avph> KaKaRoTo: no read only is (or can be) achieved with southbridge registers. TPM is to prevent updates rollback but the secure boot and safe updates are still there
<KaKaRoTo> /WP pin of the flash chip with protect the entire chip, not just a portion of it
<nico_h> no, /WP pin to protected part of the flash chip
<nico_h> usually, /WP only protects the block protection setup of the chip not the whole chip
<nico_h> but... that depends on the chip
<nico_h> KaKaRoTo: the general idea is: 1. have one part RO during runtime (can be achieved with early programming of PCH registers, as avph pointed out). 2. the RO part only runs other (updated) parts if a signature verification worked out
<KaKaRoTo> ok
<KaKaRoTo> I assume the early programming of PCH registers is done by vboot itself already
<avph> not sure but certainly saw stuff like that
<KaKaRoTo> I have this in my TO-READ list, so I'll explore that more later : https://www.coreboot.org/git-docs/Intel/vboot.html
<nico_h> unlikely, as it's mostly only used on chromebooks with the /WP thing

kakaroto added a comment to T177: Test/Implement fwupd support.

You won't taint it because this task/project is about writing a bash script, there's no proprietary bits in the bash script itself. Unless it's about the FSF requirement and the fact that the script itself will manipulate a binary file? Somehow I'm not sure that's a valid reason, considering that the librem-coreboot-updater script is already in PureOS and this task is about porting that script to the fwupd system
Either way, whether it's tagged PureOS or not, a PureOS developer is still probably the best person for the task here.

Given most of the work for this is not coreboot work, but PureOS work integrating an existing firmware image (which we'd treat as a binary blob) with fwupd, I don't know that this is really a coreboot project as much as a PureOS project.

This is stumping me at the moment, alas. Whilst the trackpad is being detected, it does not appear to be registering as a mouse device. Well, /dev/input/event5 is being detected as the touchpad, rather than /dev/input/mouse0 ("no input driver specified"). Not sure if that is even meaningful. X has -- unfortunately -- always worked for me in the past. Device exists in /proc/bus/input/devices as expected
