ipw3945 fails to install the kernel module after successful compilation against gentoo-sources-2.6.19-r5. This comes only after a recent change to the ebuild: 10 Feb 2007; Christian Heim <phreak@gentoo.org> ipw3945-1.2.0.ebuild: Moving the linux_mod-pkg_setup around, Fixing #166152 (thanks to Jan). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile gentoo-sources-2.6.19-r5 with IEEE80211 compiled within the kernel 2. Try to merge ipw3945-1.2.0 3. Watch the successful build, and unsuccessful install >>> Source compiled. >>> Test phase [not enabled]: net-wireless/ipw3945-1.2.0 >>> Install ipw3945-1.2.0 into /var/tmp/portage/ipw3945-1.2.0/image/ category net-wireless * Installing ipw3945 module install: cannot stat `ipw3945.': No such file or directory !!!

That's about the only reason set_kvobj in eclass/linux-mod.eclass would fail (or not result in anything). I've added an explicit declaration of KV_OBJ to the ebuild now, so it should *really* work for proper setups.

I too realized that the peroper extension was not being added when trying to install the module shortly after I posted. It's almost as though for some reason the set_kvobj() function wasn't being called in linux-mod.eclass, and the KV_OBJ variable wasn't being set as a result. I don't know why this might've happened. Your explicit declaration in the ebuild seems to have done the trick, and the package now merges properly. Thanks for your quick reply/fix!
