If = I=20 > file a request/bug will it be closed as a wontfix? I've started maintaining the genkernel kernel configs pretty much exclusively. I see no problem with iptables support being added. The best would be if you attached a patch against the current configs, as it would be easier on me, as I actually have to apply them to two places (genkernel SVN, and releng kconfigs for 2007.0) for the next release. The main change is that (for at least x86/amd64) we're trying to make the default kernel, which is also used on the LiveCD, as generic as possible and as feature filled as possible. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation --=-29kS2uHvKIqRPhUNpt2I Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBFO38KkT4lNIS36YERArSJAJ4wQ+AMyAcgvwCJpfJHQd9fJT75rgCdEshB MbYFX0Q9fa00Lo8pWRcDGG4= =/4BW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-29kS2uHvKIqRPhUNpt2I-- -- gentoo-releng@gentoo.org mailing list
