[gentoo-user] Minimal kernel tree for building out-of-tree modules?
After I've built and installed a kernel and the in-tree-modules, is there a way to clean the kernel source/build tree down to the minimal set of files needed to build out-of-tree modules? I think you would end up with the same files that you would have after doing make modules_prepare in a clean source tree with the addition of the Module.symvers file. -- Grant

Are there plans to put jitsi in the main tree? There's jitsi in overlay (I forgot which). It can't be accepted into tree yet because it needs to be stripped of bundled libraries and not all of them are in tree. So the maintainer would have to add those to tree as well.
