ompiles on every revision of a kernel-image package, which is slightly irritating; or failing to provide a smooth downgrade path in the event of an ABI change that coincides with a silently broken module, which is truly ugly. The idea of automatically recompiling modules sounds good to me, but I still think it needs to be coupled with kernel ABI tracking to avoid the risk of slagging the user's initrd. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer signature.asc Description: Digital signature
