Subject: Menuconfig has butterfly effects?
Date: Tue, 27 Feb 2007 18:12:42 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200702271812.42616.rob@landley.net> (raw)
I ran "make ARCH=x86_64 menuconfig", did a lot of editing, and saved
the .config. Then I copied that to a backup, ran "make oldconfig" on the
config I'd just saved, and compared it with the backup:
--- .config 2007-02-27 18:10:01.000000000 -0500
+++ tryit 2007-02-27 18:09:09.000000000 -0500

The first hunk I expect, the second I did not. Anybody care to venture a
guess why the visibility logic is unstable?
