Update to 1.0.0.52 / Merge from Debian

[Amr Ibrahim]

Debian has 1.0.0.52. I think Ubuntu should update.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Debdiff attached, Marc, can you please review wrt the udev rules?

Current Ubuntu udev rules (in steam package)
99-steam-perms.rules

# Steam Controller device node write access, per lp:1498655
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1102", MODE="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1002", MODE="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1142", MODE="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1042", MODE="0666"
# Steam Controller udev write access, per lp:1498658
KERNEL=="uinput", SUBSYSTEM=="misc", TAG+="uaccess"

Current Debian udev rules (in steam-devices package)
99-HTC-Vive-perms.rules

# HTC Vive HID Sensor naming and permissioning
KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bb4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2c87", TAG+="uaccess"
KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2101", TAG+="uaccess"
KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2000", TAG+="uaccess"

99-steam-controller-perms.rules
# Valve USB devices
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", MODE="0666"
# Steam Controller udev write access
KERNEL=="uinput", SUBSYSTEM=="misc", TAG+="uaccess"
# HTC Vive HID Sensor naming and permissioning

I think we can drop most of the delta, but I don't have a strong opinion about the udev rules.

[Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur)]

I think Debian's udev rules are fine. Uploaded, thanks.

[Gianfranco Costamagna (costamagnagianfranco)]

thanks Marc for confirming! lets see now if the package migrates or not :)

[Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur)]

I'm a bit uncomfortable that this package now removes files from the steam runtime though:

From debian/scripts/steam:

# remove steam-runtime's libstdc++ files, which are incompatible with
# newer mesa drivers (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/78242)
find $runtime -name libstdc++.so.6\* -execdir rm -f {} \;

Do we know if that's absolutely necessary in Ubuntu?

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package steam - 1:1.0.0.52-2ubuntu1

---------------
steam (1:1.0.0.52-2ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #1591216), remaining changes:
    - Add an epoch to the version number as there was an unrelated
      steam package in the archive with a higher version number.
  * Drop the udev rules, they have been merged in debian into
    the steam-devices package.
    do not Break+Replace, because Debian has different filenames.
