Description Colin Macdonald 2004-10-03 13:24:12 UTC

The build process of madwifi-driver uses uudecode which is part of the sharutils ebuild but app-arch/sharutils isn't listed as a dependency.

I was helping a friend with a new install so I don't have emerge info or anything else but I think it was the 20040909 ebuild that was effected (probably previous ones too because the firmware (called hal I guess) is uuencoded with the source code).
