Description Jakub Sadowski 2005-05-07 10:58:37 UTC 
In regards to bug #85012 I'm just wondering if something needs to be done with the "kernel-mod_configoption_present" function available from within all ebuilds.

Currently it checks /usr/src/linux/.config for a particular kernel configuration option but this is not compatible with the new KBUILD system.  One new method of checking could be to:
1) First check /proc/config.gz
2) Then "${KBUILD_OUTPUT}"/.config should be checked if the above kernel feature hasn't been enabled.

This will probably continue to plague ebuilds using the function until a new approach is taken.

kernel-mod has been deprecated, and linux-mod should be used.
This is resolved in this new eclass.
