It has a known problem - if the "selected" thing changes (requires another option etc) things are screwed. With "depends on", you don't have to track such changes.
While near selects (in the same build directory) are IMHO ok, far ones are not.
I think it would be different if trying to select something which can't be selected automatically resulted in a warning. I think I have to look at it then, but for now I'll use something like "depends on (FB_CIRRUS=m && I2C && I2C_ALGOBIT) || (FB_CIRRUS=y && I2C=y && I2C_ALGOBIT=y)". -- Krzysztof Halasa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
