Could you add an entry to the DEVELOPERS file for this package ?

Also, could you name the package openfpgaloader, i.e in lower-case ?

This dependency is also because of libftdi1

Use the argp-standalone package to provide argp functionality for
non-glibc toolchains.

So here you will be able to lift the glibc dependency thanks to
argp-standalone.

Interesting to use the AGPL for such a project, but oh well :)
