Since linux-headers now provides alsa headers, I have put alsa-headers into package.provided to make alsa-lib think it is already installed. The bug is probably in the alsa-lib/alsa-utils for requiring the obsolete alsa-headers package.
unable to reproduce: $ qlist -CIv |grep linux-headers sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.39 $ qlist linux-headers |grep sound /usr/include/linux/sound.h /usr/include/linux/soundcard.h /usr/include/linux/ultrasound.h
2.6.39 is an unstable version of linux-headers I'm running stable versions of both linux-headers and alsa-headers. As indicated in the original report, I'm using linux-headers 2.6.36.1
Your sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.36.1 is broken. # ebuild linux-headers-2.6.36.1.ebuild install ... # find /dev/shm/portage/sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.36.1/image/ |grep sound /dev/shm/portage/sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.36.1/image/usr/include/linux/sound.h /dev/shm/portage/sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.36.1/image/usr/include/linux/soundcard.h /dev/shm/portage/sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.36.1/image/usr/include/linux/ultrasound.h Do you have the build log from your linux-headers-2.6.36.1?
I can't reproduce with =sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.36.1 and either 1.0.23 or 1.0.24 of media-sound/alsa-headers
Some things I would check: - Look for odd copy of kernel-2.eclass in one of installed overlays - Reinstall linux-headers If that doesn't clear things up, as Robin said in Comment #3, build.log of linux-headers is required for futher proceeding of this bug.
I reemerged linux-headers, and now I can emerge alsa-headers without errors. Thanks for the help.
