zaptel ebuild fails miserably on linux kernel V2.4 due to an invalid kernel config check. Attached patch repairs that. Also the /etc/modules.conf file needs to be in the /etc directory of the image before the make install is done.
Created attachment 102295 [details, diff] Patch for zaptel 1.2.1[01] ebuild to work on kernel 2.4
In CVS, thanks
Please verify the install part of the patch, it didn't materialize in the ebuild. the insinto is realy needed, otherwise you endup with a file /etc containing the modules.conf data. Current ebuild fails.
cp doesn't watch insinto. (In reply to comment #3) > Please verify the install part of the patch, it didn't materialize in the > ebuild. > > the insinto is realy needed, otherwise you endup with a file /etc containing > the modules.conf data. > > Current ebuild fails. >
insinto also creates the directory...., in that case the sequence can be insinto newfile /etc/modules.conf modules.conf or mkdir ${D}/etc cp /etc/modules.conf ${D}/etc/
and that should have been newins and not newfile...

Linux V2.4 kernels are not supported with gentoo any more, no need to keep the compatibility mode...
