 Justification?

It can be used without module-assistant. This package just makes things
easier, but is not at all necessary.

Thanks.

Bug#405491: Not depend on module-assistant

2007-01-06 Thread Junichi Uekawa
Hi,

   I think it's better that it recommends module-assistant then depends,
   because it's not completely needed.
  
  Justification?
 
 It can be used without module-assistant. This package just makes things
 easier, but is not at all necessary.

Can you give an example of such valid use?


regards,
junichi

The user may want to do it by hand.

/usr/src# tar xjf linux-uvc.tar.gz
/usr/src# cd modules/linux-uvc
/usr/src/modules/linux-uvc# make
/usr/src/modules/linux-uvc# make install

But I'm checking this in another source module packages, and it seems to
me that there's no standard. fglrx-kernel-src recommends m-a;
alsa-source doesn't even suggests it; ndiswrapper-source, ipw2200-source
and ipw3945-source depends on it. So I think that doing this by hand can
be considered not a debianized form of doing, and this possibility
doesn't need to exist. I'll never use it like this myself. For me you
can close this bug, I thought all packages recommend m-a, but I only
checked fglrx-kernel-src.

Best regards.

Hello,

I think it's better that it recommends module-assistant then depends,
because it's not completely needed.

Thanks.
