Description Manolis Stamatogiannakis 2002-06-27 06:13:00 UTC

I try to xconfigure the kernel and I get the following error:

coyote linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r7 # make xconfig
rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm)
make -C scripts kconfig.tk
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r7/scripts'
cat header.tk >> ./kconfig.tk
./tkparse < ../arch/i386/config.in >> kconfig.tk
-: 309: can't handle dep_bool/dep_mbool/dep_tristate condition
make[1]: *** [kconfig.tk] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r7/scripts'
make: *** [xconfig] Error 2

By changing "dep_tristate" to "tristate" on line 309 of arch/i386/config.in
the xconfiguration succeeded. Is this the correct solution to the problem?
