AFAIK, changes to the required versions of userland-tools wouldn't during a stable release happen ever-so-often. I can agree that it wouldn't be ideal to introduce a completely new requirement, though. A C-version of CML2-configurator would be a nice solution here. But, I'm fairly confident that Marcello will make the right decisions on his own. /David _ _ // David Weinehall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> /> Northern lights wander \\ // Maintainer of the v2.0 kernel // Dance across the winter sky // \> http://www.acc.umu.se/~tao/ </ Full colour fire </ _______________________________________________ kbuild-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kbuild-devel
