Description
Travis Tilley (RETIRED)
![]() These are the only ebuilds that DEPEND on alsa-driver, so I'm including their maintainers to get a fix (I'll take care of the media-* ones this weekend). games-emulation/stella/stella-1.3.ebuild kde-base/kdelibs/kdelibs-3.0.5b-r1.ebuild media-libs/alsa-lib/alsa-lib-0.9.0_rc2.ebuild media-sound/alsamixergui/alsamixergui-0.9.0.1.2-r2.ebuild media-sound/alsamixergui/alsamixergui-0.9.0.1.2.ebuild media-sound/alsamixergui/alsamixergui-0.9.0.1.2-r1.ebuild games-emulation/stella is fixed in CVS kde depends on alsa-lib and virtual/alsa. Is this wrong? virtual/alsa is for the driver... so if you need the headers provided by the alsa-driver or kernel, then that's what you need to DEPEND on. almost nothing should depend on alsa-driver... almost nothing needs those headers. though, since i moved over to an amd64 box, this hasnt been as much of an issue. there must be some virtual that prevents alsa-drivers from installing, since the 2.4 kernel isnt supported on amd64 and so alsa-drivers should never ever be installed. *shrug* Travis: virtual/alsa is provided by the 2.6.x kernel and media-sound/alsa-driver. Additionally, you should be able to use >=media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.2c instead of the one that is included in the kernel if that is your desire. just waiting on the kde-base/kdelibs/kdelibs-3.0.5b-r1.ebuild switch from alsa-driver to virtual/alsa... kdelibs is now fixed great, thanks. |
