I'm not the bbswitch maintainer, so this is something of an aside, but I've been considering dropping the *-source packages from other packages I maintain because DKMS seems to have all the same functionality. (Build for custom kernels, build Debian packages if you want, etc.) Am I missing things that DKMS is not capable of? > (Bonus points if you use this then to build packages for the debian > kernels so that at least for those the buildds can do the dirty compile > work just like its done for the nvidia module.) Yeah, I wish we had a better way of handling this. It's very nice to have those packages, but maintaining them is a pain. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
