ahh, nice, can you please only attach diffs against the latest in-portage
version when you open a version-bump bug? diff -u oldebuild newebuild > diff

But I don't intend to do a version Bump right now, because current madwifi cvs
has some severe Bugs:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102104

And for the patch: Why is it not included in the uostream cvs? Can you please
get it applied to the madwifi cvs so that we don't have to carry the patch in
portage and make it apply on every new version?
Comment 4 Henrik Brix Andersen 2005-08-21 09:15:32 UTC
I agree. Please get the patch accepted by upstream, and it will automatically be
available through portage once a new snapshot is added.
