Package: linux-image-5.3.0-1-amd64
Version: 5.3.7-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The Linux kernel currently included in Debian/unstable doesn't include a 
driver for keyboards and touchpads of Macs which have them connected via SPI.

A driver for this was added in Linux 5.3 (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/
linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?
id=038b1a05eae6666b731920e46f47d8e2332e07ff), but isn't included in Debian 
yet.

Please consider including the "applespi" driver, as this driver enables the 
keyboards and touchpads of various mobile Macs from 2015 to 2017.

Thanks,
Daniel
