I am trying batman-adv on trunk openwrt for ubiquiti bullet2. I am using trunk because I want 2011.4.0.
In menuconfig I select Kernel Modules/Network Support/Kmod-batgat + kmod-batman-adv + enable batctl.
Now I see that in Network/Routing and redirection/Batmand is auto selected (I cannot deselect it)
Is this normal behavior? I see that besides the kmods, I also have batmand installed on the router. I thought that this would have not been included after the introduction of batman-adv.
Is this normal behavior or is there something wrong with menuconfig that is causing batmand to be included?
Thanks,
Perazim
Thanks, that took care of the problem.
A followup question: I would rather use branch but it only has batman-adv-2011.2.0 whereas the current version is 2011.4.0.
Followed the instructions here:

... Changing the batman-adv / batctl version¶
It is also possible to modify the batman-adv version if you ever wanted to build an older/newer version than configured in the package:
stable version:
Adjust the PKG_VERSION variable to download & build the stable release you are interested in.
cat openwrt/feeds/packages/net/batman-adv/Makefile [..] PKG_VERSION:=2010.0.0 [..]
In doing this, I had to also update the md5sums for the sources.
I now receive this error while building:

Did something change between 2011.2.0 and 2011.4.0?
Thanks,

kmod-batgat belongs to the Layer 3 batman, do not select it.

Yes, there were changes. You can check the svn history of the batman-adv package in OpenWrt or search through the mailing list archives. This question was asked & answered before.
