Since the new mechanism for enabling/disabling selected components of the

Could we please have that option, unless there are compelling reasons to the
contrary? The MTD stuff drags in a bunch of
dependencies.
No problem with the patch or the option [...]
Good, thanks.
but: Dependencies? A bunch? I don't see any. Not even the rules
are doing anything, if no mtd devices are present.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but I thought I had to install
the mtd-utils and/or configure MTD support into the kernel.
Certainly, the mtd_probe build bombs out on my system with mtd.h not
found. And if the mtd-utils are needed, they drag in attr and
libacl.
