Subject: [RFC 03/10] ubi: bump ubi-media.h to newest version
Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2012 12:16:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1351246602-8859-4-git-send-email-w.sang@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1351246602-8859-1-git-send-email-w.sang@pengutronix.de>
Needed for ubiformat, we are interested in image_seq especially.
