Description Jiri Pittner 2007-02-06 15:04:52 UTC 
net-wireless/ieee80211-1.2.15 does not compile with 2.6.20-gentoo kernel sources,
fails due to undeclared "struct page"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.just try to emerge newest gentoo-sources and net-wireless/ieee80211-1.2.15
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
ieee80211 kernel module

Using gcc (GCC) 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1-r3), but should not matter.
Probably something was changed with struct page between 2.6.18
which I am using now and 2.6.20 and ieee80211 package has not been adapted 
to the change yet.

Fixed with ieee80211-1.2.16, maybe will fix this in ieee80211-1.1.13-r1.
