Description Daniel Black (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-30 20:04:41 UTC
sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.20 linux-headers-2.4.21 ebuilds missing 
PROVIDE="virtual/kernel virtual/os-headers". 
 
All other sys-kernel/linux-headers/* ebuilds do have theses provides. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Comment 1 Joshua Kinard gentoo-dev 2003-10-01 02:07:54 UTC
linux-headers-2.4.20 doesn't exist, and I'm responsible for re-writing linux-headers-2.4.21
from scratch (to utilize kernel.eclass).

I'll re-assign this to myself since I'm responsible for this minor oversight
and correct it.
Comment 2 Joshua Kinard gentoo-dev 2003-10-01 02:17:31 UTC
Corrected in CVS, thanks for the report.
Comment 3 Daniel Black (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-01 03:01:38 UTC
Did you happen to see linux-headers-2.4.22? Which is the one that I should
of said instead of linux-headers-2.4.20. Sorry.

linux-headers-2.4.22 is missing PROVIDE line too.
Comment 4 Daniel Black (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-01 08:01:49 UTC
Guess you did see it.
Comment 5 Joshua Kinard gentoo-dev 2003-10-01 17:22:33 UTC
linux-headers-2.4.22 is just a cp'ed linux-headers-2.4.21, so I fixed that
too when I fixed 2.4.21.

I do recommend on being careful with linux-headers-2.4.22.  iputils, the
package which provides neat tools like ping, tracerroute and such, will not
build against 2.4.22 because iputils is one really strange package.  This
is why 2.4.22 headers are keyword masked for now.  I simply put them in there
incase anyone wants to take the initiative to figure why they and iputils
don't play nicely together.
