ftr my opinion on this hasn't changed since the beginning, I was hoping
that the idea would be scrapped early rather than more work being put
into it.
I noted your initial concerns and sam's hesitation, and would have
stopped pursuing this further had I not also received positive feedback
convincing me that there is indeed some demand for adding DKMS support
as an option. I had hoped that the final version of the new eclass,
being significantly cleaner and more robust, would have changed your mind.
This just feels like a messy half-solution that we're better off
without.
So NACK from me, both for linux-mod-r1 and adding support to my
packages like nvidia-drivers.
Not that I'll revert if it gets merged anyway.
Is there anything I can say or do to convince you otherwise? I honestly
believe that I have addressed all concerns that have been raised so far.
Adding support for the DKMS pathway to only a subset of kernel modules
is bound to be lead to a confusing end result, so that is not really a
state in which I want to merge this in.
Best regards,
