As the output says. Please contact the Flashrom list.

Three more annotations.

1. They are interested in verbose log files, so please also use the
parameter -V (or -VV).
2. Flashrom 0.9.5.1 has been released already. Using latest development
version is always appreciated [1].
3. Please just send plain text messages and no HTML messages to lists
[2].

Thanks,

Paul
