--- Comment #14 from Bernhard Walle
"Online update only" means post release? It is not clear to me (from above discussion) whether until then we get full USB 2.0 speed or not? If not then rather than shipping with a serious performance issue (just to release an update effectively immediately?) I would rather delay the product and have it shipped in a better shape.
And in the end we will never ship. Because there will be always a bug that causes the delay. But I can only give recommendations. The decision will be made by the project manager (Stephan Kulow).
Also, from what is is worth, I don't really think dependency data in comments is a good and robust solution. Why the whole problem with initrd and modprobe.conf if I may ask? It would make most sense if initrd would use modprobe.conf in the same way "full system" does. Single point of configuration, single rules, single behaviour.
We use the same configuration. But we need to decide which programs and modules we include in initrd (or do you think we should include the hole hard disk in initrd). There are four options 1) Hard-code such things in initrd. 2) Use the comments I implemented. 3) Express dependencies not in install lines but with an additional mechanism (which may be done for 11.2). 4) Try to parse the install lines. That is error-prone. I don't want that. I used (2).
