Description Alexander Stein 2008-10-14 16:52:58 UTC

The problem (and solution) is the same as in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218169#c11 and following

Reproducible: Always

Um, so it's gentoo-sources that fails to produce a (working) kernel? If so, make the Summary reflect that, by putting the afflicted cat/pkg-version at the start of the line.

Quoting comment 11 from that bug:

"The updated squash patch is nearly perfect. Just a
#include <linux/sched.h>
is missing in fs/squashfs/inode.c is missing. After including that line it
compiles without errors and works without problems."

Alex, first off thanks for the bug report (and the testing you've been doing).  As Jeroen requested, in future it would help a lot if you could provide a short description and summary, even if it feels like you're duplicating stuff that's written elsewhere.  Thanks...  5:)
