Pleasr help with patches if you find time. Thank you! commit 12e4bee Looks like this is NOT in any released version. Can haz plz? Say what? $ genkernel --version 3.4.45 $ genkernel --help | grep -i virtio --virtio Include VirtIO kernel code genkernel's man page is still missing the information about the --virtio flag. I didn't expect that --help has more/different information compared to the man page so I was under the assumption that the current stable genkernel version comes without it until I grep'ed the source for 'virtio'.

I have a patch in my branch that fixes this: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/genkernel.git;a=commit;h=050167bb95c0320ed27ed701ad3be7d5627146d3 I plan to commit it to master in time for the next tag, but I am holding off until I sleep on it. In particular, I am not sure if I am happy with the description that I wrote. Fixed in 3.4.47, just released. Closing. |
