Since ver. 19 rpi-eeprom contains firmware for the new Raspberry Pi 5 (broadcom-2712). Here is the ebuild. Feel free to make the corrections, improve it, as my ebuild skills are not at a Gentoo developer level. # Copyright 1999-2023 Gentoo Authors # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 EAPI=8 PYTHON_COMPAT=( python3_{9..11} ) inherit python-r1 systemd MY_P="${PN}-$(ver_cut 1-2)" MY_BASE_URL="https://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/r/${PN}/${PN}_$(ver_cut 1-2)" DESCRIPTION="Updater for Raspberry Pi 4 bootloader and the VL805 USB controller" HOMEPAGE="https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/" SRC_URI="${MY_BASE_URL}-$(ver_cut 4).debian.tar.xz ${MY_BASE_URL}.orig.tar.gz" S="${WORKDIR}" LICENSE="BSD rpi-eeprom" SLOT="0" KEYWORDS="~arm arm64" REQUIRED_USE="${PYTHON_REQUIRED_USE}" IUSE="pi4 pi5" REQUIRED_USE="^^ ( pi4 pi5 )" BDEPEND="sys-apps/help2man" DEPEND="${PYTHON_DEPS}" RDEPEND="${PYTHON_DEPS} sys-apps/flashrom sys-apps/pciutils || ( >=media-libs/raspberrypi-userland-0_pre20201022 >=media-libs/raspberrypi-userland-bin-1.20201022 )" src_prepare() { use pi4 && export BROADCOM=2711 use pi5 && export BROADCOM=2712 default sed -i \ -e 's:/etc/default/rpi-eeprom-update:/etc/conf.d/rpi-eeprom-update:' \ "${MY_P}/rpi-eeprom-update" || die "Failed sed on rpi-eeprom-update" sed -i \ -e 's:/usr/bin/rpi-eeprom-update:/usr/sbin/rpi-eeprom-update:' \ "debian/rpi-eeprom.rpi-eeprom-update.service" || die "Failed sed on rpi-eeprom.rpi-eeprom-update.service" } src_install() { pushd "${MY_P}" 1>/dev/null || die "Cannot change into directory ${MY_P}" python_scriptinto /usr/sbin python_foreach_impl python_newscript rpi-eeprom-config rpi-eeprom-config dosbin rpi-eeprom-update rpi-eeprom-digest keepdir /var/lib/raspberrypi/bootloader/backup for dir in default latest old critical stable beta; do insinto /lib/firmware/raspberrypi/bootloader doins -r firmware-$BROADCOM/${dir} done dodoc firmware-$BROADCOM/release-notes.md help2man -N \ --version-string="${PV}" --help-option="-h" \ --name="Bootloader EEPROM configuration tool for the Raspberry Pi 4B" \ --output=rpi-eeprom-config.1 ./rpi-eeprom-config || die "Failed to create manpage for rpi-eeprom-config" help2man -N \ --version-string="${PV}" --help-option="-h" \ --name="Checks whether the Raspberry Pi bootloader EEPROM is \ up-to-date and updates the EEPROM" \ --output=rpi-eeprom-update.1 ./rpi-eeprom-update || die "Failed to create manpage for rpi-eeprom-update" doman rpi-eeprom-update.1 rpi-eeprom-config.1 newconfd rpi-eeprom-update-default rpi-eeprom-update popd 1>/dev/null || die pushd debian 1>/dev/null || die "Cannot change into directory debian" systemd_newunit rpi-eeprom.rpi-eeprom-update.service rpi-eeprom-update.service newdoc changelog changelog.Debian popd 1>/dev/null || die newinitd "${FILESDIR}/init.d_rpi-eeprom-update-1" "rpi-eeprom-update" } pkg_postinst() { elog 'To have rpi-eeprom-update run at each startup, enable and start either' elog '/etc/init.d/rpi-eeprom-update (for openrc users)' elog 'or' elog 'rpi-eeprom-update.service (for systemd users)' elog '/etc/conf.d/rpi-eeprom-update contains the configuration.' elog 'FIRMWARE_RELEASE_STATUS="critical|stable|beta" determines' elog 'which release track you get.

I had a look at this too but it made my eyes glaze over when I got to || ( >=media-libs/raspberrypi-userland-0_pre20201022 >=media-libs/raspberrypi-userland-bin-1.20201022 )" since judging by the version numbers, those packages are well out of date too. Indeed, the home page for raspberrypi-userland has the notice ... This repo is ancient and deprecated. It largely contains code using proprietary APIs to interface to the VideoCore firmware. We have since move to standard linux APIs. V4L2, DRM/KMS and Mesa are the APIs you should be using. The few useful tools from here (dtoverlay, dtmerge, vcmailbox, vcgencmd) have been moved to the raspberrypi/utils repo. Code from here is no longer installed on latest RPiOS Bookworm images. If you are using code from here you should rethink your solution. Consider this repo closed. Fixing that is well above my 'nibble round the edges' ebuild skill set but I can help with testing.

I'll take this, since I've already had the work prepared in a branch for a little while. Mainly been waiting on libcamera, but maybe I could merge this part early. Bear with me.
