this problem happen after doing an emerge --sync && emerge -pvuND world this went fine then to check all ok ->I did a revdep-rebuild -ip revdep-rebuild told me * Checking dynamic linking consistency [ 81% ] * broken /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/iwscan.so (requires libiw.so.29) [ 100% ] * Generated new 3_broken.rr * Assigning files to packages * /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/iwscan.so -> dev-python/python-iwscan then emerging python-iwscan fail doing a lafilefixer --justfixit no change emerge --sync again => no change fail and now even trying downgrading to net-wireless/iw-0.9.17 and building dev-python/python-iwscan-20080402 will still fail
python-updater did not help either
well python updater didn't work for me either. I think this package is not compatible with python 2.6.4 and above. this package is needed by wicd (flag ioctl)but wicd can works without it. I removed it. suggest checking python version compatibility and if this is the case amending ebuild python-iwscan accordingly. filed a bug upstream: http://projects.otaku42.de/ticket/18
It's not a python related. Which version of wireless-tools you're using?
Created attachment 262735 [details, diff] patch for python-iwscan-20080402.ebuild
Created attachment 262737 [details, diff] patch for pyiwscan.c wireless-tools-30 used
Shortly, pyiwscan.c rely on PROC_NET_WIRELESS, which in wireless-tools-30 is not defined anymore in iwlib.h, but moved to iwlib-private.h As quick worlaround, 2 patches, added above can be used =)
Fixed.
