Description Carlos Rivera 2009-08-25 22:03:39 UTC

If I try to emerge ipsec-tools 0.7.2, I get an error message when it tries to compile when using both the stable 2.6.27 headers and the 2.6.30-r4 kernel.  

The only way to emerge ipsec-tools is to emerge 2.6.30 kernel headers before trying to emerge ipsec-tools.  Most likely ipsec-tools will not compile if you have a different kernel and headers versions in the system.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge both stable 2.6.27 kernel headers and 2.6.30-r4 linux kernel
2. emerge ipsec-tools
3. Workaround:  emerge 2.6.30 linux headers first, then do emerge ipsec-tools again



Expected Results:  
ipsec-tools sucessufully compiled.

Please STOP selecting the packages website as the Bugzilla component, or I will block your account. This is the 3rd bug from you today, and you have failed to follow instructions.

The list of products is very clear:

And the "If you're unsure where your bugs go, then file them here." is in large red text.

Despite Carlos's misuse of the bugzilla the bug is real (missing <asm/swab.h>). Why linux-headers-2.6.30 are still unstable whereas gentoo-sources-2.6.30 are?
