PTXdist (or rather kconfig) does not have a notion of "provides" or metapackages. I think is currently no way other than making a choice option that selects the one or the other, or letting your config option deoend on BUSYBOX_OPENVT || KBD_OPENVT. In the latter case it is probably good to add a comment above it that depends on the opposite value notifying the user that neither one of them is selected (see the comment above IPTABLES_INSTALL_IPTABLES_APPLY in iptables.in for example). - Roland -- Roland Hieber, Pengutronix e.K. | [email protected] | Steuerwalder Str. 21 | https://www.pengutronix.de/ | 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 | _______________________________________________ ptxdist mailing list [email protected]
