Now, say I want to run another build where some modules missing in the config file should be build, and let's also assume that I explicitly want to ignore a bunch of modules which are included in modules.lst. The build deviations should affect a single build run only but not any subsequent builds. Would I need to change the config file(s) for that special build (and later revert them), or could I do it by means of giving Make parameters that override cfg settings?
