Description Marc Doughty 2004-02-19 08:28:13 UTC

Current headers packages are maxed out at 2.6.1, I'd like to take advantage of the updates to the kernel since then. Can 2.6.3 be dropped into portage? I'm trying to 'push ahead' and find bugs with NPTL.

Fixed in CVS, it should be with you in Portage within an hour. Thanks!

You might want to run another rsync if you've installed 2.6.3 already since it seems that the upstream kernel devs broke byteorder.h on X86 with the "__attribute_const__" thing. Fixed in CVS, so it should be in Portage within an hour, so just merge your headers again after you've synced.
