[Bug 1500591] Re: ubuntu-drivers-common should not care about case-sensitivity in modaliases

 

Good point. The current code (i.e. fnmatch.fnmatch()) is case sensitive
because the OS is.

Title:
  ubuntu-drivers-common should not care about case-sensitivity in
  modaliases

Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  It seems to me like ubuntu-drivers-common should be able to match
  modaliases from devices and packages regardless of case; for instance:

  alias pci:v000014E4d000043B1sv*sd*bc02sc80i* wl

  is the same as

  alias pci:v000014E4d000043b1sv*sd*bc02sc80i* wl

  Both should match against the same device: 14e4:43b1, which appears to
  show as uppercase on wily.
