Yes, correct, I'll add that.

I don't like too much having packages that interfere with the kernel
configuration, because it's a nightmare: when iptables is compiled, we
would need to ensure that kernel support is available, same for
xfsprogs, for v4l-utils, for input-tools, etc ?
Our policy has been that the user needs to be aware of what (s)he is
doing, especially when it comes to making sure that the kernel
configuration appropriately matches the requirement of userspace
applications and libraries.
Regards,
Thomas
