Description xo0ox 2009-10-04 18:03:07 UTC 
net-wireless/madwifi-ng fails to build against recent vanilla kernel (2.6.31 and above).

This is NOT the bug described in #262761

It happens with ebuild 0.9.4.4030.20090529 and all other ebuilds

Reproducible: Always

Thank you for report, guys. Could you check if it works for you if you
cp madwifi-ng-0.9.4.4030.20090529.ebuild madwifi-ng-0.9.4.4100.20090929.ebuild
?

Kernel 2.6.31.1 Atheros AR2413 working in AP mode.

Got a few problems to digest madwifi-ng-tools-0.9.4.4100.20090929.ebuild. I had to remove madwifi-ng-tools-0.9.4.4030.20090529.ebuild. With madwifi-ng-0.9.4.4030.20090529.ebuild everything worked without removing old ebuild.

Thanks for your fast responce.

Please commit the new ebuild.

0.9.4.4100.20090929 works here too and is bumped in the tree. Thank you for report and help in tests.
