Bug 77216 – net-wireless/madwifi-driver-0.1_pre20050107 works on amd64

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Peter Rosenblum 2005-01-09 04:25:05 UTC]

Please add "~amd64" to the KEYWORDS for net-wireless/madwifi-driver-0.1_pre20050107

One important thing to note.... at one step during the install process, an attempt is made to 'uudecode' a file. This will fail unless a user has a uudecoder installed. I was able to manually decode this file with app-text/uudeview and then resume the compile.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Its not in unstable in x86 because we wait for a linux-mod.eclass fix, so that it will also work with modutils instead of only module-init-tools .. I think amd64 is mainly 2.6 so it can go unstable there.

uudecode: app-arch/sharutils is missing as dep, should be added when marking ~amd64 please.

Can you please also test the latest madwifi-tools?

There is already a depend here.

qpkg  -f `which uudecode`
app-arch/sharutils *

solar@simple madwifi-driver $ grep ^DEPEND madwifi-driver-0.1_pre20050107.ebuild 
DEPEND="app-arch/sharutils"

I think we can keep that tracked here.

madwifi-driver & -tools 20050107 are in and both marked ~amd64 ~x86
