Description Sarah Gardner 2004-09-19 15:03:37 UTC

Even though the ebuild sets DO_NOT_COMPILE="wifi" if you set USE -wifi, the KDENetwork configure script detects the presence of some wireless tools and decides to compile the KDE wifi stuff any way (on my system this then fails due to a dependency on arts)

The only way I could get around it was to alter the configure script and remove the test for the wireless stuff, so I imagine the configure script needs patching.

Created attachment 39985 [details, diff]
patch to disable wifi if specified at configure time.

I think this patch will help if you make sure to pass --disable-wifi at
configure time.
