Description David Pufer 2005-05-03 11:25:43 UTC

In order to use ifenslave userspace tool for ethernet bonding driver on embedded systems with uClibc it is necessary to replace dependency on sys-libs/glibc with virtual/libc. Otherwise, ifenslave refuses to merge on uClibc systems. Please, coorect the ifenslave ebuilds.  I tested it on x86 platform only.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:  
ifenslave refuses to merge on uClibc systems due to sys-libs/glibc dependency 
in ebuild 

Expected Results:  
emerge ifenslave on embedded systems not using glibc

fixed, but I warn Embedded now that ifenslave will NOT work on systems other than linux (eg ppc-macos or bsd).
