I won't ask why support was dropped for LSM before proper
support for dazuko.

Very simple and Ann wrote it: the upstream kernel maintainers decided to
not export LSM anymore. And as dazuko isn't in the kernel source, it
won't work anymore. That's the problem of *all* external kernel modules:
i.e. their maintainers must make sure their code works with the latest
kernel.

And if that big business decides to not use suse because of this dazuko thing, they are making wrong judgments and having wrong expectations and blaming the incorrect people; worse, their linux department is not up to standards. Not a very sound business practice :-P

Maybe they should fire the linux department :-P


This problem of externals modules reminds me of a presentation I was told recently to watch:
