Description sp33dfreek 2024-03-05 19:56:45 UTC

all this package needs is a change to the K_GENPATCHES_VER variable inside the ebuild (line 7)
for version 6.6.20: K_GENPATCHES_VER="26"
for version 6.7.7: K_GENPATCHES_VER="11"
for version 6.7.8 it can be left at 12 (as it is in the 6.6.10 ebuild)

in accordance to https : // dev . gentoo . org / ~mpagano / genpatches / kernels.html (you must excuse me bypassing the spam filters, its for a good cause)

This package will never move at the speed you are seeking. We try to keep it in sync with zfs-kmod support. I understand this can be frustrating but you are always welcome to maintain a local copy that you can bump at your pace.
