That gave me the idea that it would be good if you could specify kernel configuration dependencies in your zbuild. It's seems cruel to allow a poor unsuspecting user to install something that is never going to work without the option enabled in the kernel. What the dep could do at a minimum is warn the user that s/he needs to adjust the kernel. Possibly though it could even compile the required module and stick it where it's needed. Just a thought. - Galik --=-b0w2/0SowjvvlKiKWZ6f Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA/A0zTm0GAxmY3JIURAsg6AKC9MHUXv04K5beDH04ifSgOpTSeMACghz4Z 8su8oKBlAOyUrWSw2DzoqWQ= =WhEL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-b0w2/0SowjvvlKiKWZ6f-- --===============58522047261996502== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Zynot-pkgmgr mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zynot.org/mailman/listinfo/zynot-pkgmgr --===============58522047261996502==--
