I know you already added this to the overlay, but it is very important to move
it into portage, since if you have several instances of the kernel, you get the
build wrong.
This is opened in order you remember this issue... :)
Hi Alon,
I think you might have an old eclass lying around in an overlay that's causing
you problems. If you look in /usr/portage/eclass/vmware-mod.eclass, you should
see on the line that reads BUILD_TARGETS="..." that there is already a
KERNEL_DIR in there, and that it gets it's location from the linux-mod eclass.
So there isn't much more I can do about this I'm afraid. I'm going to mark it
as invalid simply because it isn't really a bug in Gentoo, but feel free to
continue to post to the bug if you want help tracking down the issue, or to
reopen it if there is some deeper problem involved... 5:)
Hi!
Thanks for quick response.
It does not work without my patch...

Ah, yeah, fair enough. Sorry about that, I had thought I'd pushed the altered
patch over to the main tree. Just pushed the fix into the tree, please check
the CVS in a couple of hours and let me know if that fixes it. Thanks again
for the report! 5:)
