Bug 31286 – linux-utils-2.12 failes to compile when 2.6.0 headers are used

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Peter Gnodde 2003-10-16 08:12:05 UTC]

This patch fixes compile issues with util-linux-2.12 (and probably earlier) in conjunction with 2.6.0 linux-headers (see bug #31285).

now in cvs, thanks

Not working here... autconf.h is missing.. not a util-linux trouble but only for reference.

`emerge util-linux`

emerge sys-apps/util-linux output

[Comment 5 Matt Philips 2004-01-02 12:31:52 UTC]

I'm having the same issue on multiple systems running 2.6.0 kernel and linux-headers.

[Comment 6 Matt Philips 2004-01-03 13:18:04 UTC]

Solved by following instructions in bug #36998 (remerge linux-headers, then remerge util-linux).

This patch doesn't quite work with util-linux-2.11z

I made some minor adjustments to it so it does.

This is important, since if you're bootstrapping with
/usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap-26.sh after manually unmasking the 2.6 headers
ebuild, "emerge system" dies rather annoyingly partway through.

Ferrets patch did the job :)

[Comment 11 Danek Duvall 2004-02-01 11:55:22 UTC]

This appears only to have been applied to 2.12-r3 and 2.12-r4, but it's needed on all the versions in portage.  Should I open a new bug that actually applies to those versions?

[Comment 12 ferret 2004-02-01 22:38:02 UTC]

danek: can you try applying my patch (the last one) on any 2.11z version, and if it succeeds, open a new bug and attach the patch? Thanks.
