sys-fs/fuse should use a flag to decide whether or not to build the module, since the module is integrated in newer kernel versions. (at least since 2.6.15)
sys-fs/fuse does this automagically, no need for a use flag.
But doesn't work for me, maybe you can help me find out why? Issue 1: - My computer wants to compile the module, though my kernel is build with that module already. Issue 2: - Compiling the module fails (probably due to version incompatibility reasons) Portage 2.1_pre7-r4 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-3.4.5, glibc-2.3.5-r3, 2.6.16-gentoo-r1 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16-gentoo-r1 i686 Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 - M CPU 1.80GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/grass60/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig collision-protect confcache distcc distlocks fixpackages metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/gentoo/ http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LINGUAS="en de" MAKEOPTS="-j2 -s" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X a52 aalib accessibility acl acpi alsa apache2 apm arts audiofile avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 cairo canna cdr cli crypt cscope ctype cups curl dba dga directfb dri dts dvd eds emboss encode esd exif expat fam fastbuild fbcon ffmpeg flac flash foomaticdb force-cgi-redirect fortran freewnn ftp gd gdbm ggi gif gimpprint glut gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal imagemagick imap imlib ipv6 isdnlog jack java jikes jpeg kde lcms libg++ libwww lirc mad maildir mbox mcal memlimit mikmod mmx mng mono motif motiv mozilla mp3 mpeg mysql nas ncurses nls nptl ogg oggvorbis openal openexr opengl oss pam pcmcia pcre pda pdflib perl pic png pnp posix ppds pppd prelude python qt quicktime readline samba scanner sdl session simplexml slang slp soap sockets speex spell spl sqlite sse sse2 ssl subversion svg svga symlink tcltk tcpd tetex theora tiff tokenizer truetype truetype-fonts trusted type1-fonts udev usb v4l v4l2 vorbis wifi win32codecs wxwindows xine xinerama xml xml2 xosd xsl xv xvid zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse input_devices_vmmouse kernel_linux linguas_en linguas_de userland_GNU video_cards_ati video_cards_vesa video_cards_fbdev video_cards_vmware video_cards_v4l" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS emerge sys-fs/fuse >>> checksums src_uri ;-) fuse-2.4.1.tar.gz * Determining the location of the kernel source code * Found kernel source directory: * /usr/src/linux * Found sources for kernel version: * 2.6.16-gentoo-r1 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking fuse-2.4.1.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/fuse-2.4.1-r1/work * Applying fuse-fix-lazy-binding.patch ...
