Bug Description

This is a bug to track the inclusion of opal-prd[1] package in Ubuntu. The plan is to add it initially for 15.10 and later backport it to 14.04 archive.

opal-prd is a daemon that listens for hardware diagnostic events (by listening on the /dev/opal-prd device), and executes firmware-providedexecutable code to handle these events.

For now, the code lives inside https://github.com/open-power/skiboot/tree/master/external/opal-prd.

Here is a packaging for opal-prd based on what Jeremy Kerr did with some improvements.
As I understand, we need opal-prd kernel headers which is tracked in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1439562 .
For the time being, Jeremy provided me a -linux-libc-dev .deb for 14.10 so I tested everything on 14.10 so far.
Here are the files attached. debian/changelog should be changed otherwise there should be no lintian, just a pedantic one for debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature .
