ndiswrapper 1.60-8ubuntu3 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ndiswrapper (1.60-8ubuntu3) focal; urgency=medium

  * Prevent the build of ndiswrapper-dkms modules for kernels newer than 5.4.
    Groovy has deprecated this package, so the ndiswrapper drivers won't be
    supported on Focal with the backported HWE kernels. (LP: #1903549)

ndiswrapper: Userspace utilities for the ndiswrapper Linux kernel module

 Some vendors do not release specifications of the hardware or provide a
 Linux driver for their wireless network cards. This project implements
 Windows kernel API and NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specification) API
 within Linux kernel. A Windows driver for wireless network card is then
 linked to this implementation so that the driver runs natively, as though
 it is in Windows, without binary emulation.
 .
 This package contains the userspace tools. You will also need the kernel
 module package.

ndiswrapper-dbgsym: debug symbols for ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper-dkms: Source for the ndiswrapper Linux kernel module (DKMS)

 Some vendors do not release specifications of the hardware or provide a
 Linux driver for their wireless network cards. This project implements
 Windows kernel API and NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specification) API
 within Linux kernel. A Windows driver for wireless network card is then
 linked to this implementation so that the driver runs natively, as though
 it is in Windows, without binary emulation.
 .
 This package provides the source code for ndiswrapper kernel module to be
 build with dkms.
