update usb_modeswitch from 1.1.0 to 1.1.3

[koter84@…]

could you please update the version of usb_modeswitch to the current upstream release?

I got a new HSPA USB-modem but it isn't supported in version 1.1.0, though i checked on the site of draisberghof and it seems my dongle is supported.. i guess i can add a file in the /etc/usb_modeswitch/ directory to call the right commands... but since the feature is prominently on your site i think it's a good idea to keep the usb_modeswitch software up-to-date..

thanx

I'll see if we can get this in for 2.3.7. Thanks for the hint!

[koter84@…]

what is the timeline for the 2.3.7 release...?

i bought this router to be able to use my 3G-dongle and share it over WiFi?! since these functionalities are advertised on your site i would expect the versions of the necessary software to stay close to the upstream releases...

the usb_modeswitch software is currently at a version from januari 24th, 2010!

I'm hoping to get a beta out shortly after 2.3.6.1 (which should be in a few weeks, if things work out ok...).

Btw, considering that the latest 2.0n release is from April, having a usb_modeswitch version from January isn't quite bad (given that we want to get some testing on such changes before releasing firmware updates, to prevent regressions).

(In [1786]) usb-modeswitch: Update to version 1.1.4.

This uses the package from the OpenWRT packages feed (r22903) unmodified.

Note that this removes all of the usb-modeswitch config files. These will be added later on in a separate package, just like in OpenWRT. Also note that this package now includes a hotplug script to start usb_modeswitch when a suitable configuration file is present. This is currently handled by a custom binary in the umtsd package.

Closes: #865

(In [1787]) usb-modeswitch-data: Add new package, version 20100826.

This uses the package from the OpenWRT packages feed (r22903) unmodified.

(In [1788]) umtsd: Depend on usb-modeswitch-data.

Since usb-modeswitch does no longer ship device config files, we need to depend on the new usb-modeswitch-data package.

(In [1789]) umtsd: Remove usb_hotplug.

This utility has been replaced by a hotplug script shipped with the usb_modeswitch package now.
