After I build a new kernel with genkernel and reboot, I need to emerge several hardware-related packages. For example, I run: LIRC_OPTS="--with-x --with-driver=hauppauge --with-major=61 --with-port=none --with-irq=none" emerge nvidia-kernel nvidia-glx lirc ivtv It would be very helpful to have a standard configuration file as part of genkernel that could be called uniformly across machines. Something like: genkernel --postconfig all which would run a configured list of emerges, along with an optional command prefix, as above. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
man genkernel -- The --callback option is already there.
Incidentally, I think what Jeff was asking for was something to automatically recompile packages that install kernel modules. This functionality is covered by sys-kernel/module-rebuild, which was created just a few weeks after this bug.
