Hi, I encountered an Issue with flashing a BIOS and the message says "Get help on IRC at chat.freenode.net (channel #flashrom)"
this points to an old server not monitored. The correct one (Libera.chat) should also be included in the error message. They could help me there.
Thanks for the notice. I personally took care of fixing this in https://review.coreboot.org/56031 a while ago. To make sure a similar problem won't happen again, flashrom executables now point to our wiki, which we can update as needed without having to wait for package maintainers. However, this was before the last release.
Version 1.2-5
We've backported my patches to the release branches (see Felix's comment), but I'm not sure if any package maintainers will update the packages. The next flashrom release is long overdue, primarily because the quality of the code in the master branch degraded too much to make a new release with. We're trying to bring the quality back again, but it takes time and effort...
Regards Nils
Best regards, Angel
