Description:   Opened: 2004-08-27 08:27 0000 
2.6.8 kernel fails. the workaround is an incomplete solution and should be
fixed by someone more skilled than me.

I got the error:
make: *** No rule to make target ./coreconf/Linux2.6.8.mk

For my system I changed the ebuild line
cp ${S}/mozilla/security/coreconf/Linux2.5.mk
${S}/mozilla/security/coreconf/Linux2.6.8.mk
from "Linux2.6.mk" to "Linux2.6.8.mk"

and also the line containing "cp Linux2.5.mk Linux2.6.mk" to "cp Linux2.5.mk
Linux2.6.8.mk"

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge nss
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
no workie.

I can confirm that this is a bug with NSS 3.8 using the 2.6.8.1 kernel. The .1
is breaking the make file. I hardcoded the linux kernel version in and it
builds as expected. This is a problem with ifeq() in config.mk

I am also using 2.6.8.1 Linux kernel and also I got this bug. Then, I did to
try edit nss-3.8.ebuild file at line #60:

original line:
cp Linux2.5.mk Linux2.6.mk

edited line:
cp Linux2.5.mk Linux2.6.8mk

and after this step I did to perform new emerge nss and it works fine for me:-)

IMHO, maybe the problem originate in wideness of Linux2.6.8.1 description,
where the numbers field is 4-digits long and previous versions of kernel have
just 3-digits asignment. Last one digit is stripped out and in previous 2.6
version just "2.6" remains, but when 2.6.8.1 is stripped, result is 2.6.8. And
this is origin point of failure. As I saw: IMHO :-).

This fix worked for me, anyone have a more permanent solution?

Possibly a duplicate of bug 61166.
