I know this is in relation to the beta kernel, but I thought I'd post it here to help out anyone who may have a similar problem in the future. This may also be useful if the 2.6.23 kernel is released before a fix from the truecrypt developers is available. The 2.6.23-rc1 kernel (vanilla) has made a change to the kmem_cache_create() function where it now has one less argument. A patch is required for the truecrypt source code so that this extra argument is dropped. I have attached a new .patch and a new truecrypt 4.3a r1 ebuild to solve these problems.

Created attachment 126224 [details] app-crypt/truecrypt/truecrypt-4.3a-r1.ebuild New ebuild for truecrypt 4.3a which has a src_unpack() function added to patch the source code if the kernel version is greater than or equal to 2.6.23. This patch is required in order to compile the truecrypt kernel module on 2.6.23-rc1.

Thanks! But kernel tends to add more issues until it is released... So we will wait for final before fixing anything.
.
2.6.23 is now released, please commit the patched ebuild.

Reopen.
Why? Works... Can anyone paste some logs? and emerge --info?
I'm confirming that the patch is no longer required with the following specifications (trimmed emerge --info): Portage 2.1.3.9 (default-linux/amd64/2007.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5-r4, 2.6.23 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.23 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ Timestamp of tree: Mon, 15 Oct 2007 06:50:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r5 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.9-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.17-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.16 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.24 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.22-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -msse3 -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -msse3 -O2 -pipe" FEATURES="distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" MAKEOPTS="-j3" I'm not sure what changed, but this ebuild doesn't seem to be need patching. It is either something that changed in one of the later -rc's of 2.6.23 or was caused by an upgrade from 2.6.21 headers to the latest stable 2.6.22 headers.

Reopening as this is broken in the stable tree.. I'm now working towards 2.6.23 stabling in 2 weeks time, so this stuff should ideally be fixed in stable if possible.
Please don't reopen bugs for stable request. Opened bug#197557. Thanks.
