Please: ls /usr/include/linux/autoconf.h qpkg -f -v /usr/include/linux/autoconf.h Maybe `emerge linux-headers` will fix it if it's nonexistent.
Thank you for the fast help! Several days ago i install the kernel-headers-2.6.0 on my system, they don't provide the needed autoconf.h file. Hmm, strange. Maybe there is a bug in this package? It seems that xfree don't build with this headers.
Ideas?
On gentoo-users wrote somebody about the same problem with -r3 and 2.6.0. Refer to: http://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-user@gentoo.org/msg34220.html He wrote something about a patch. I contacted the autor, perhaps his patch is also applicable on -r4?
There is a patch in -r4 to (supposedly) fix compilation against 2.6 headers. See bug #17345. It's unrelated to autoconf.h.
Merge your headers again and this should go away. I think that this is now solved because I've ditched the "make oldconfig" method which seemed to be making this bug. Thanks.
Yes, i could merge xfree with kernel-headers-2.6.1. These ebuild provide the missing autoconf header. Many thanks!
