Hi Matt,
I see that you have already checkin my patch. Yes, it is needed
and is not affected by the config.in changes. The problem was
that there was no target in the drivers/dump/Makefile that depends
on dump_rle.o, so it would never have been compiled, irrespective
of the config settings. The patch I sent previously added a
top level target dumpdrv.o that includes all the .o files ever
built in drivers/dump directory (ofcourse based on config settings).
Thanks for checking the patch in yourself :-)
Regards,
Vamsi.
