First of all: I don't think this is suitable for trivial. The actual code change might be small, but the change in behaviour is important and needs discussion. > This might be questionable, to make the thing to be either > module or built-in depending on build environment, so a > better idea may be to make it modular unconditionally. > This block device format isn't used often. Yes, I'm concerned that making it conditional might be a bit surprising. I'd like to hear some more opinions before applying this. Also, should we consider making some more rarely used image formats modules even if they don't pull in external dependencies? Kevin
