[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH v2] ramips: EX2700: remove unused kernel modules

[Joseph C. Lehner]

Okay thanks, I'll keep that in mind. But the second issue still remains:

I was referring to the latest snapshot build for the ex2700 from
downloads.openwrt.org, which come with all kmod-usb* stuff included,
even though these modules should have been removed by the PACKAGES
specification even before this patch, and I'm assuming that the same
thing will happen to kmod-mt76.

Doesn't this indicate another issue somewhere, since I'd assume that
the buildhosts always start from a clean build directory?
