It would be great if dtb-source version were in sync with the kernel one. What do you think, is it worth to reimplement dtb-source, using buildrequires: kernel-source instead of using linux tarball? Yes, I had proposed the same. Dirk wanted to look up some macros for aiding with that... :)
DTB files should be independent of kernel version. Maybe they should, but in practice they aren't for new boards being added to the kernel. Things get added to .dts in newer kernel versions that are required for those kernels to work properly.
You should be able to use a dtb/dts file from kernel 3.16.* for a 3.11.* kernel for example. Well, since Factory's dtb-source package will always be older-than or equal-to kernel-source, this direction seems irrelevant. Occasionally things get moved around, so there may be exceptions to the rule.
We could have dtb-* updates as we have kernel-* (and other packages) updates. No? Did you encountered some problems with kernel/dtb mismatch? Guillaume -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
