Description Attila Tóth 2016-10-18 07:52:22 UTC

If ipp2p module is selected and sys-libs/libhx is not installed, it will result in a missing symbol: HX_memmem.

I'm not getting this.  I was able to build libxt_ipp2p.so without sys-libs/libhx.  Please give me the entire build log.

Yes, it compiles. You can only catch the missing symbol after the module is merged in its place and a depmod is issued. You see the missing symbol while issuing depmod - ebuild does that in the last phase.

How can a kernel module be linking against a library?  Can you give me a modprobe -v please.

You are right. I can't reproduce it now. I think this may be closed as an INVALID...
