[Comment 2 Ygor Lemos 2006-11-01 12:08:46 UTC]

Same problem on Gentoo 2006.1 with kernel 2.6.18-gentoo-r1.

Seems that wpa_supplicant has problems to find the driver_hermes.o which actually I don`t even need on compilation time.

Please check if the build compiles ok on another environments. I`ve tryed on 3 machines and get fail on all of them.

The version 0.5.4 compiles OK without any errors.

Please change this bug to severity MAJOR!!

thanks

Applying this diff to the ebuild fixed it for me:

Fixed.

[Comment 5 Ygor Lemos 2006-11-02 13:47:39 UTC]

Did you guys fixed the ebuild or do I need to apply the patch?

[Comment 6 Roy Marples (RETIRED) 2006-11-02 13:52:47 UTC]

The ebuilds been fixed - maybe you need to resync?
