• Status: RESOLVED LATER

[Description Urgo 2003-04-27 21:04:15 UTC]

make xconfig always fails in gs-sources 2.4.21 rc1

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge gs-sources
2. cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.21_rc1-gss
3. make xconfig

Actual Results:  
gondor root # cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.21_rc1-gss/
gondor linux-2.4.21_rc1-gss # make xconfig
rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm)
make -C scripts kconfig.tk
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.21_rc1-gss/scripts'
cat header.tk >> ./kconfig.tk
./tkparse < ../arch/i386/config.in >> kconfig.tk
drivers/ide/Config.in: 46: can't handle dep_bool/dep_mbool/dep_tristate condition
make[1]: *** [kconfig.tk] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.21_rc1-gss/scripts'
make: *** [xconfig] Error 2
gondor linux-2.4.21_rc1-gss #


Expected Results:  
The xwindows version of the kernel config should have started

just upgraded from gentoo-sources, linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r1

which version of tcl/tk ?

[Comment 2 Urgo 2003-04-28 09:05:02 UTC]

gondor root # emerge -p tcl tk

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R  ] dev-lang/tcl-8.3.4  
[ebuild   R  ] dev-lang/tk-8.3.4-r1

[Comment 3 Stanislav Brabec 2003-05-05 15:36:35 UTC]

Please, could you verify, that it fails in both tcl/tk 8.3 and tcl/tk 8.4?
If yes, it is probably bug in kernel config scripts, if not, it is probably problem of update or tcl/tk.

Please look at drivers/ide/Config.in, whether it does not contain bad line.

this is a vanilla 2.4.21_rc1 bug
