Description Jesper Saxtorph 2010-06-26 16:32:39 UTC

After emerging, compiled and installed the newly stabilized kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.33-r2, the latest stable lirc fails to compile.

After some research, I made it work with upstream patch + patching similar to a suggestion for lirc 0.8.6.in Bug 301321

The upstream patch can be found at:
http://lirc.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lirc/lirc/drivers/lirc_dev/lirc_dev.h?hideattic=1&r1=text&r2=1.37%3Alirc-0_8_6&tr1=1.38&tr2=1.1&view=patch
I have added it as lirc-0.8.5-kernel-2.6.33.patch

Maybe your problem is related to this -> http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=312691#c4

Works fine on amd64 and 2.6.34-r12 kernel.
Please add ebuild and patch to portage.

Patch looks like it was applied upstream to 0.8.7 ..  Closing since that version is current stable.
