xconfig's "Show Debug Info" and menuconfig's help screen show you whether an option was selected and by which option. xconfig calls it "reverse dep:", menuconfig says "Selected by:".
Of course these features are merely there because 'select' creates this problem in the first place. -- Stefan Richter -=====-==--- ---= --==- http://arcgraph.de/sr/
