Bugzilla Bug 31556

Can't emerge against the gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r6.ebuild.  The
xfree-drm-4.3.0-r6.ebuild contains lines 90-93:

[code]         
# Is this necessary with the fixed Makefile?
if [ ! -f /usr/src/linux/include/config/MARKER ] ; then
   die "Please compile kernel sources."
fi
[/code] 

but the kernel tree never contains this.

Commented these lines out, and it emerges just fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
[code]
emerge gentoo-sources
make clean ; make mrproper ; make clean
cp /etc/kernels/config-2.4.20-cmd5 ./.config
make menuconfig ( no changes )
make dep

emerge xfree-drm
[/code]
Actual Results:  
[code]

I believe the MARKER file shows up once you've made a bzImage. Do you have
any better test that a 'make dep' was done?

Well I'll be a monkey's ugly paternal grandfather.  It works, by George.
 I'm full of epithets... perhaps a note in either the ebuild about that might
be in order? (the make bzImage, not my being full of epithets)

That's a temporary solution, but I honestly would rather find a way to just
test for a make dep, instead of forcing a bzImage. 

Ideas are welcome. Until one comes up, I'm going to mark this CANTFIX.
