Updated ebuild

Minor issue with the old one with installing a file that was not there.  The
change was not saved.  Sorry for the trouble.

modules.d file needed in the files directory for the ebuild

Needed module configuration file (place in files directory under ndiswrapper
directory (/usr/local/portage/net-wireless/ndiswrapper/files ... replace path
according to port overlay configuration))

The exact reason for using this version over the previous .10 version is what exactly? I just see this as like a copy of the old .7 or .8 ebuild... There's nothing new... more like functionality removed.

Comment 5 Saleem Abdulrasool (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

In response to comment #4:

Erm, there are no features removed.  Its the same features, just a new release of ndiswrapper, which has bug fixes, and more support for wpa.

Your ebuild is what I was refering to.

Comment 7 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

i.e. If you read the info on providing revision bump requests for ebuilds, provide a diff against the most recent version or just say that you need to rename .10 to .11 and it all works.

Comment 8 Saleem Abdulrasool (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

That was a small modification of the .10 ebuild.  However, the ebuild for the .10 was from the wrong location.  Sorry for the trouble.

Comment 9 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

commited to CVS based on the actual .10 script with some modifications (i.e. man page inclusion)
