Sorry if I didn't have a closer look at the code yet.

I can take a look, feel free to just send me a reminder if forget.
Also, feel free to reach out to me in private if there is anything that
you cannot discuss openly.


Could you explain to me what the storage code is for? You really
shouldn't be needing any storage code within the libfprint driver. The
libfprint API user (i.e. fprintd) will take care of this for you.

It looks to me like you are trying to solve problems in the driver that
are better handled by libfprint or fprintd (and may be solved already
there).


Other than that, is PixelAuth able to provide a couple of samples for
the current maintainers of the project (one goes to me at Red Hat and
the other would go to Marco at Canonical)?
I'll provide shipping information in private then.
