Description gaplo 2002-06-18 13:27:25 UTC
mjc-sources is not emerges correctly, the addpatch script cannot apply the
gentoo-patches to the original kernel sources (2.4.18).
Comment 1 Joachim Blaabjerg (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-06-18 15:34:24 UTC
Could you be a little more precise? What's the actual error? Are there rejects,
or is the patching failing altogether?
Comment 2 gaplo 2002-06-18 23:11:59 UTC
after I emerge mjc-sources, there are two directories created, one is storing
those gentoo-patches, another is mjc-kernel(actually, I forgot what exactly name
it is) directory. However, I found that the mjc-kernel directory is storing the
original stock kernel 2.4.18, no patches has been applied. I have to manually
get into the gentoo-patches directory and use the command "addpatches
../gentoo-sources ../mjc-kernel" to apply the patches. I do think there may be
some error in the ebuild file, it should change into the gentoo-patches
directory before and run the addpatches command, but the ebuild file seems
running the addpatches at the parent directory of gentoo-patches, and fail to
apply the patches since it cannot find those patches which are not located at
the current directory.

I'm aware of this.  I've not had a chance to look at it yet, but I will.  If you
can figure out why it isn't running correctly please let me know =)

I noticed some errors.

1. in the ebuild file mjc-sources-2.4.19_pre10.ebuild:
   - line 46: should be similar to this
              "addpatches default linux-${KV} gentoo-patches"

2. addpatches script seems can only run in the directory that contain the patches

Oops.
