Re: Kernel PKGBUILD proposition: Ease custom kernel compilation.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Why the PKGBUILD gets a lilte bit "messy" is to treat an "unamed" kernel. The rest is only adding "${_kernname}" at the end of "kernel26"...

I also use the stock kernel on my main laptop, but I compile my own for other machines. I also sometimes try some patches which are not yet included.

I opened a bug report at http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/12384

This seems like an OK idea. It does make the PKGBUILD more messy,
however. Either way, if you stick this in the bug tracker, we can get
it assigned to the proper person and see what they feel about it.

Me personally, I use the stock kernel, so I don't have much of an
opinion. But back when I used to compile my own kernel, something like
this would have been great.
