This is my first attempt at ebuild writing other than patching small bits so please review/test. It is based off the madwifi-ng-0.9.2 ebuild. The madwifi-ng-tools-0.9.2 ebuild can simply be copied to madwifi-ng-tools-0.9.3 I believe. Atleast that is what I did for the moment. Compiles, installs and works on x86/hardened hostapd machine. Clients have connectivity. Very little testing otherwise. Have not tried it with wpa_supplicant yet, too late, need sleep. Reproducible: Always

Created attachment 113838 [details] madwifi-ng-0.9.3.ebuild-rev02 revised ebuild (obsoletes madwifi-ng-0.9.3.ebuild attachment): -testing (~) not stable -don't export variables
Very nice - the ARCH bit (well, really the src_compile() isn't needed at all) isn't necessary (that I have seen) - I actually bumped this last night sometime, and didn't get this bug until this morning. Great work though, and look forward to hearing from you if there are any bugs (aside from a few known ones ;) )
One issue. With madwifi-ng-0.9.3 rate control module selection is done at module load time instead of compile time as in madwifi-ng-0.9.2*. No special USE flags or any related stuff is needed. Patch against the madwifi-ng-0.9.3.ebuild in portage incoming now. Regarding the ARCH stuff: You are correct, I get rid of src_compile() and no problems. I was getting ARCH mismatch errors related to madwifi's ARCH detection script, scripts/get_arch.mk while I was working on this but not anymore. *shrug*

Good catch - when I get out of work, I will apply and bump
Created attachment 113910 [details, diff] madwifi-build_all_ratemods-rev2.patch BUILD_PARAMS variable is also no longer used. I missed removing that in the first patch.
Bumped and added to CVS - Thanks for the work on this :)
Some issues with the latest ebuild: BUILD_PARAMS has been removed, now madwifi builds against the running kernel rather than the one in /usr/src/linux and this is not the correct behaviour IUSE is missing from the ebuild Using ${PN}-${PV} is redundant, use ${P} instead (in the epatch line)
Created attachment 113972 [details, diff] Fixes issues in comment #10 Those are my fault entirely. Sorry, still learning. Here is a patch against -r1. Thank you for the constructive feedback.
Those changes look correct, thanks!
Fixed, I hope. Added IUSE after it was pointed out that it is a MUST apparently. Repoman didn't complain, so I assumed it was correct. If I keep screwing up the ebuild it will never get stabled ;)
