"testing purposes" is exactly why the dependency says "depends on BROKEN || arc" instead of "depends on !arc"
This makes it clear that it's an unsupported configuration, but it still allows you to enable it with a few more steps. I guess a way to make it even more clear would be to introduce an 'UNSUPPORTED' config symbol to distinguish it from 'BROKEN', but I'm not sure if it's worth adding. - Felix _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
