Bug 104279 – Genkernel 3.3.5 errors with udev-039 reference when it's been replaced wuth udev-054!

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Darren Miller 2005-08-30 09:11:56 UTC]

The error is correct udev-039.tar.bz2 doesn't exist because it's been 
superceded by udev-054, so why is genkernel looking for this older version?

* Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 3.3.5
* Running with options: all

I have been able to work around the issue by copying the new tarball udev-054 
to udev-039, but would like not to have to do this..

Correction, copying the udev-054 to udev-039 didn't prove as a work around, am 
trying protected ebuild of gentoo-sources with udev-068.

Nope still references an out dated version of udev.  I have no idea why.

Because you probably have not updated genkernel.conf via etc-update. Post the
output of grep UDEV_VER genkernel.conf

[Comment 4 Darren Miller 2005-08-31 03:23:58 UTC]

OMG I cannot believe I missed that obvious step..  The only drawback with etc-
update is the sheer issue that it updates key configuration files and the fact 
that I don't have time to sit there and exclude the specific files I need to 
avoid across the number of machines I need to update.. /sigh

Therefore would it not be more productive to update that file during emerge?

OK, this can be closed.

Marking INVALID.
