You’ve been on vacation for 5+ months?
Also wouldn’t it be best to post this communication in the issue thread?
Given how long this has gone on now, it’d probably be best to inform your community that you’ll be removing BLOBs from the source and for them to be produced during build otherwise this shadow is going to remain.
This was the first time I’ve ever heard of your software and has kind of made me want to steer clear of it.
Many of the BLOBs are essential to allow Ventoy to work with Secure Boot. They are compiled and signed by Fedora and OpenSUSE. They definitely need to be better documented, but they aren't reproduceable for good reason.
For the purposes of this project, you could at least reproduce them by running
wget
and downloading them from the original projects.Exactly. Source it from upstream at build time or something so it’s transparent.
Homie is sitting in a cell somewhere in Washington or Beijing :sob:
