Add python-validity support #267

Closed bima0302 closed 3 months ago

Describe the package

I was hoping to get the python-validity (https://github.com/uunicorn/python-validity) package out of the box in this image. Thus, fingerprints can be used on most types of laptops.

Information on the package

https://github.com/uunicorn/python-validity Validity fingerprint sensor driver.

Interesting.

I would like to know some personal experiences with specific laptop models, which got working fingerprint after installing this package. So far, I could not find any anecdotal experiences on this.

Just a note that those dependencies should be installed as well, as listed in main page: open-fprintd fprintd-clients fprintd-clients-pam

As an anecdote: python-validity is required to get the fingerprint readers working on both of my ThinkPads (T480s and X1 Nano). I would love to see an option for this.

I suppose it makes sense here given that ublue has a strong foundation of hardware enablement.

Alright so this isn't in any repo and no one seems to be working on it, if someone wants to work on this please reopen.
