Description Matt 2007-10-16 19:38:58 UTC

emerge newest device-mapper >=1.02.22,

modify genkernel-ebuilds to include device-mapper 1.02.22, then re-digest & re-emerge it,

compile your kernel with:
genkernel --no-clean --makeopts=-j7 --lvm2 --evms2 --dmraid  --menuconfig all

then see how it complains about failure to remove man(manual) from /var/tmp/portage/*something 

code-snippet:
rm -r "${TEMP}/device-mapper/man" ||
			gen_die 'Could not remove manual pages!'

temporary fix:
use older device-mapper

please investigate & fix if possible :)

tested with:
genkernel 3.4.9_pre3 & 3.4.8-r3

Do not do this, this is not supported in any way.
