Dear Maintainer,

the Debian package of libcec does not support the Raspberry Pi's (RPI) HDMI
port in version 4.0.3+dfsg1-1.
Version 4.0.4.1~stretch in Rasbian does support it (you can find it here:
http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/libc/libcec/).

Please consider if it is possible to build the package with RPI support in
Debian, too, as done for the Rasbian package (at least on armhf).

If you are interested in that change and want to have help, please reach me.
I guess it might be trivial when diffing both source packages.

Kind regards
Patrick

Hi,

I have forwarded the issue to Raspbian, to help the resolution of the
legal issues around the
linked libraries.

Cheers,
