What is exactly the meaning of RUNTIME? Why is it needed here? Apart from that. What about the following: select KBD if !BUSYBOX select KBD_OPENVT if !BUSYBOX select BUSYBOX_OPENVT if BUSYBOX && !KBD_OPENVT This would prefer the Busybox version of openvt if none is explicitly selected and Busybox is already present (thus avoiding to pull in the kbd package if we can avoid it) Best, Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia guille.rodrig...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de
