Can you please add a description for this option? Or drop the "parman" string if this is always selected by its kernel users, and never intended to be enabled by the end user. Thanks!

I did it in the same way other similar lib dependencies do that. Does not make sense to have separate description for this, cause this is always only a dependency of a kernel user. You suggeste to 'drop the "parman" string'. What do you mean by that exactly? Thanks. Jiri ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
