I don't get that impression. Rather, the list is sorted alphabetically, with no bearing on dependency chains other than that explicitly requested modules appear with less indentation. > Or am I reading the output incorrectly?

Maybe listing the dependency of each module would be nicer than the current alphabetic list, but I'm not bothered by it enough to write the patch myself. -- Eric Blake [email protected] +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
