Current state of kconfig in v2.6.36-rc1 (which is a later version than the one Jean-Christophe references) is the following: - savedefconfig bugs fixed - reading a minimal config (created by savedefconfig) fixed The nconfig issues I mentioned regarding search are not yet ready. And I am not sure if they go in until next merge window. Likewise there are patches in the works that will ease the integration with external projects. The patches does the following: - Allows the prefix to be configured (CONFIG_ => BR2_) - No more hardcoded "kernel" strings - mainmenu in the config file is used as headline These patches will go in during next merge window if they are finished in due time. So all-in-all I would recommend to use kconfig from v2.6.36-rc1 (rather than some random commit) and then upgrade again around v2.6.37-rc1 time.
