Description Dusty Ashley 2003-02-10 21:37:35 UTC

Emerging kismet 2.8.1, while buling successfully, the required file
/etc/kismet/kismet_ui.conf is not correctly generated, all I get is an empty
file. I was able to correct this problem by building kismet from the source
package and copying the file to /etc/kismet/ so this shouldnt be too much
trouble to fix.

--Dusty Ashley

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge Kismet
2. nano -w /etc/kismet/kismet_ui.conf
3. stare at oblivion ;)

Actual Results:

There had been an error in a few of the kismet ebuilds in one of the sed lines that dealt w/ the kismet_ui.conf placement. That was fixed about 1 1/2 weeks ago. Try rsycning and re-emerging. Let me know if the problem still persists.
