Description:   Opened: 2006-11-24 16:24 0000 
ivtv-0.8.1 fails to install ivtv-fb. FB is detected by "linux_chkconfig_present
FB" but for some reason linux-mod_src_install does not install it. Output:

install -m 0755 v4l2-ctl ivtvctl ivtvfbctl ivtv-radio ivtvplay ivtv-mpegindex

------- Comment #1 From Jeffrey Gardner 2006-11-24 16:40:21 0000 ------- 
Omitting the FB test and adding ivtv-fb directly to MODULE_NAMES (at the
beginning) works fine though...

------- Comment #2 From Douglas Hitchcock 2006-11-28 08:00:03 0000 ------- 
also happens in ivtv-0.8.0, which is the stable version at the moment.

New ebuild that also installs the ivtv-fb framebuffer module

This new ebuild solves this bug. Someone from gentoo who knows what's wrong
with the "linux_chkconfig_present FB" construction may want to change the
original 0.8.0 ebuild instead, but otherwise this ebuild is the way to go...

ivtv 0.8.1 ebuild that correctly checks kernel for FB support before building
(or not building) ivtv-fb

problem was that MODULE_NAMES was being defined outside the pkg_chk function,
so adding to it wasn't taking. I modified it to print out an info or warn
message about building/not building the module.

------- Comment #5 From Steve Dibb 2006-11-29 11:29:31 0000 ------- 
Fixed in CVS, -r1 ebuild.  You'll have to use 'fbcon' to install the module.

ivtv ebuild that checks fbcon use flag and CONFIG_FB option in kernel

I just added fbcon to the previous ebuild I modified. It seems to work for all
three test cases:

fbcon enabled, CONFIG_FB set (ivtv-fb builds)
fbcon enabled, CONFIG_FB not set (emerge spits out an error, terminates)
fbcon disabled, CONFIG_FB not set (ivtv-fb does not build, no errors, but a
warning saying that ivtv-fb will not build)
