Don't blame Kconfig for abusing select for something it was never intendend for. There is no bug! In this case there is now a mixture of depends and selects on leds. First decide whether led support should be automatically included or the driver is only available when led support is enabled. In the first case it's probably better to create LEDS_SUPPORT, which then again selects everything necessary. bye, Roman -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
