Bug 381263 – Removal: app-laptop/thinkpad

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kfir Lavi 2011-08-31 09:46:48 UTC]

Hi,
Apperantly linux 3.0.3 is not supported by thinkpad module. 

>>> Emerging (1 of 51) app-laptop/thinkpad-5.9-r1
>>> Failed to emerge app-laptop/thinkpad-5.9-r1, Log file:
>>>  '/var/tmp/portage/app-laptop/thinkpad-5.9-r1/temp/build.log'
 * Package:    app-laptop/thinkpad-5.9-r1
 * Repository: gentoo
 * Maintainer: [e-mail] [e-mail]
 * USE:        elibc_glibc kernel_linux userland_GNU x86
 * FEATURES:   sandbox
 * Determining the location of the kernel source code
 * Found kernel source directory:

 * Found sources for kernel version:
 *     3.0.3-gentoo
 * ERROR: app-laptop/thinkpad-5.9-r1 failed (setup phase):
 *   Unsupported kernel version.
 *

Is there a fix for this?
The ebuild checks just for KV_MINOR 4 or 6, so 3.0.3 can't really work. 
The source of the package has just kernel 2.2 2.4 and 2.6 sources. 
What is the state of this modules?

Regards,
Kfir

Reproducible: Always

I think I need to find someone else to possibly pick this up.  I use ARM almost exclusively these days, and rarely open my Thinkpad, so I really don't know what the state is of these, or if they are even needed anymore on 3.x kernels.

I think this should be treecleaned per gentoo-dev ML discussion days ago

Why are you deleting this ?

[Comment 4 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) 2012-02-12 09:13:37 UTC]

Because it does not build and nobody maintains it?
