[gentoo-dev] Tons of kernels, using USE-Flags not possible?

[Alexander Holler]

Hi,

it seems for every patch there exist one or more kernels.

Isn't it possible to use USE-flags or something like patch-o-matic (from 
iptables) to reduce the number of kernel-sources?

The number of patches in the kernels is changing steadily too. E.g. someone 
has to have some kind of luck to get a kernel with or without XFS. I find 
this really annoying. Or looking for crypto-patches? Take crypto, then 
gentoo, maybe tomorrow crypto again. Confusion everywhere ;)

Regards,

Alexander
