> But libraries are hard, for a number of distributional reasons. I don't see why this is the case to be honest. You can ask distros to ship your library, and if it's a sensible one, they will. And if you can't wait, you can always bundle the library with your application, it's really not a big deal to do that properly.
That's not a reason to make it a harder problem by tying a library to the kernel source... in fact I know enterprise distros are more likely to uprev a library than to uprev a kernel.... tying them together you get the worst of both worlds.... -- if you want to mail me at work (you don't), use arjan (at) linux.intel.com Test the interaction between Linux and your BIOS via http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
