Your Version of linux-headers please, is it linux-headers-2.6.29, then plz change the summary line Summary:media-video/vdr-1.6.0_p2-r3 fails to compile with linux-headers-2.6.29 vdr-1.6.x is not designd for >=linux-headers-2.6.29,
Indeed, I've upped to linux-headers-2.6.29 to resolve another issue. Q: Is it okay to have gentoo-sources and linux-headers diverge significantly (e.b. 2.6.29 and 2.6.27, both stable)?
(In reply to comment #2) > vdr-1.6.x is not designd for >=linux-headers-2.6.29, > Why that? I guess there is bug in some specific version combinations of sys-kernel/linux-headers and most likely sys-libs/glibc regarding some of the defined integer types like __u8. This makes DVB headers files unusable. To reproduce the bug please specifiy the glibc and linux-headers version that make VDR fail to compile. Please also give the use-flags you use for VDR. (emerge -pv vdr) Most likely this is the same issue as described here: http://linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2009-April/020022.html
make sure you have libcap-2.16-r1
(In reply to comment #5) > make sure you have libcap-2.16-r1 > With libcap-2.16-r1 works fine.
Same here, works with libcap-2.16-r1.
