gentoo-sources-2.4.22 has lm_sensors inside the kernel, so you don't need to emerge it seperately. If I'm not to emerge lm-sensors, where should I get the userspace tools? I fail to understand how this is not an issue. I understand that gentoo-sources-2.4.22-r2 includes i2c-2.8.1 and the _kernel drivers_ for lm-sensors-2.8.1. However, if I want the userspace lm-sensors tools (e.g. sensors), I will need to emerge sys-apps/lm-sensors. In the stable branch, the current version of this package is 2.7.0-r1, which has the following dependencies: DEPEND="~sys-apps/i2c-2.7.0" This obviously leads to problems with some of the lm-sensors modules not being the right version, which explains the segfaults I experienced after installing this package. Again - I don't see any way to get the lm-sensors userspace tools from gentoo-sources-2.4.22-r2. If I try to get them by installing sys-apps/lm-sensors, bad things happen. Judging by the addition of CCs to this bug, others are having this problem. I'm going to repoen it pending further clarification. Fixed - lm-sensors-2.8.1 is now stable on 'x86' and will also accept gentoo-sources-2.4.22 as a dependency instead of i2c-2.8.1. Unless I'm missing something, lm-sensors is still uninstallable with gentoo-sources-2.4.22-r2. It's still marked ~x86: http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/sys-apps/lm-sensors/lm-sensors-2.8.1.ebuild?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup Additionally, both i2c and lm-sensors appear in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask: # John Mylchreest <johnm@gentoo.org> (14 August 2003) # Headers have changed and break support with many video drivers such as # bttv or zoran. Kernel patch is being worked on bt lm_sensor people afaik >=sys-apps/lm-sensors-2.8 >=sys-apps/i2c-2.8 Fixed - lm-sensors-2.8.1 is now stabilized on 'x86' and I've updated packages.mask from 2.8 to 2.8.2. |
