Description Leho Kraav (:macmaN @lkraav) 2014-04-09 01:48:06 UTC
Comment in the ebuild states "we don't have mbim in the tree". I see net-libs/libmbim-1.6.0 in the tree now, so modemmanager could be patched to include this functionality instead of doing --without-mbim.

Side note, modemmanager 1.2.0 has also been released. Perhaps a version bump is also in order.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks Pacho. Would you mind bumping libmbim to 1.8.0 as well?
Comment 3 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2014-04-12 12:51:10 UTC
I would open another bug report as it's maintained by different a different developer than me :/

Filed.

But on another MM related note, how about a -9999 ebuild? I'm seeing that current git master works properly for my Dell W5560 modem, whereas even 1.2.0 is simply not able to properly establish a data port. I'm not sure how far away 1.3.0 is from release. git master built itself fine with no additional trickery for me.

Usually *9999* ebuilds are handled in gnome overlay as we don't have the resources to maintain them actively (they are more hard to maintain as they change "on the fly" when upstream commits anything
