Performed stage 3 GRP install from x86 universal install CD. Followed Gentoo 2005.1 Install Handbook. After rebooting into new system, recompiled kernel with wireless support. Could not emerge madwifi-driver. Ebuilds are present for sharutils (madwifi-driver dependency) and madwifi-driver. However, there is no .tar.bz2 for sharutils, and the cvs .tar.bz2 snapshot for the madwifi- driver is for an older version of the driver than ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge madwifi-driver expects, so the emerge fails. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: After installing the 2 appropriate .tar.bz2 files into the /usr/portage directories they belonged in a subsequent ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge madwifi-driver succeeded. The files for sharutils and madwifi-driver need to be included on the install CD.
We don't include the distfiles for *any* ~arch applications. What you are seeing is the distfiles for hostap-driver, not madwifi.
