[opensuse-factory] New package for factory: solo
Hi all, I'd like to add a new package to Factory: solo. The solo package provides support for the Solo and Solo Tap security key [1]. These are USB (and NFC) keys for use with Webauthn / FIDO2. The package is based on the upstream main solo source repository [2] and maintained in the Hardware project. Currently the only binary package provided ensures proper udev rules are in place so that local non-root users can use the devices. I plan on also packaging the Python client [3] that can be used to configure and flash the devices. However, there are currently some dependency issues for that one. As basic support already solves the most important use case (webauthn) I did not want to delay submission until those are resolved.

Just a thought but would it be better homed with the other security keys (yubi and nitro) under security? Thanks for your continued contributions. Best Regards Jon On Mon, 8 Jul 2019 at 19:40, Matthias Bach <marix@marix.org> wrote:

To be honest, I don't really have strong opinions either way. As the software is only about handling the hardware and not really security-related itself it felt natural to me to submit it to hardware.
