Description Sander Sweers 2018-07-21 09:52:47 UTC

I was doing a @world update and after I came back to it virtualbox-modules failed because the kernel config had incompatible option (TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS) set.

It would be nice to have known this upfront so I could have fixed it before it was halfway through the update. Could you also check for the incompatible options in pkg_pretend?

This comes from linux-mod.eclass which I cannot change.

Reassigning to eclass maintainers...

This is an impactfull change for which the discussion resulted in the decision not to move forward with this.
