Bug 90220 – aircrack: no keyword for amd64 and a small patch needed.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Bart Van Kerkhove 2005-04-24 04:34:59 UTC]

Aircrack has no amd64 keyword, when forced it compiles without errors but it will not function correctly on amd64 without a patch.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge aircrack
2. portage refuses to install it because of missing keyword
3. update /etc/portage/packages.keywords to use the x86 version
4. emerge aircrack
5. compilation goes without error
6. when running the program it segfaults
7. download the aircrack source code
8. apply this patch:

9. aircrack now works fine, for more information visit: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=285441
Actual Results:  
After installing the program from source and aplying the patch it works fine,
even on AMD64.

Expected Results:  
a fixed ebuild, including amd64 keyword and the patch.

Added your patch to -r1.
Keywording depends on amd64 folks.
