missing the /usr/include/linux/imon.h to let app-admin/fam-oss-2.6.9 build imon support: fam emerge ... checking linux/imon.h usability... no checking linux/imon.h presence... no checking for linux/imon.h... no Using imon support module IMonNone ... after cp /usr/src/linux/include/linux/imon.h /usr/include/linux/imon.h emerge app-admin/fam-oss ... checking linux/imon.h usability... yes checking linux/imon.h presence... yes checking for linux/imon.h... yes Using imon support module IMonLinux ... missing the install of /usr/include/linux/imon.h in gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r10.ebuild or shall it be included in linux-headers? I will test the imon/fam performance: Garnome build in my home dir (xfs): without imon in fam --it used 50-75% of the CPU time (most system time). TBD with imon in fam. Lars
hmm... I may have to make the next linux-headers versoin be in sync with gentoo-sources for better compatibility.
please correct me if i'm wrong why don't we just symb link /usr/include/linux/ to /usr/src/linux/include/linux/ ?
because technically any time you change your linux headers you need to rebuild glibc for consistancy as well. We therefore ship one linux headers per profile. As I said I'll make a gentoo-sources based linux-headers package when 2.4.20-r1 is ready, at the time of this release, it will be recommended that glibc be remerged.
