When trying to emerge hostap w/ a linksys wmp11 prism 2.5 pci wireless card, i get this error: >>> md5 ;-) hostap-2002-10-12.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking hostap-2002-10-12.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/hostap-20021012- r1/work * Applying hostap-20021012-gentoo-patch.diff... [ ok ] sed: -e expression #1, char 82: Unknown option to `s' >>> Source unpacked. make: *** No rule to make target `pci'. Stop. !!! ERROR: net-wireless/hostap-20021012-r1 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 67, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge hostap 2. 3. 1.4 rc2 synced and emerged -u world to latest packages. using ~x86 keyword. I tried both the regular and -r1 hostap ebuild. I managed to get it installed a few weeks ago, but was getting unresolved symbols errors when insmoding the hostap_pci module, and went back to the linux-wlan-ng drivers. I would like to get hostap working for hostap and fakeap though.
Problem should be resolved. Try syncing and re-emerging in about an hour once the edited version hits rsync servers. Was trying to do a sed line replacing something which didn't exist because you aren't using pcmcia. Please report back w/ how hostap works for you, i'm considering having it included in the new liveCDs.
