The same problem, probably exists in other old kernels. I guess 2.6.16 should be removed from portage in the future. It has reached EOL afaik, and users should upgrade to more recent long-term stable releases. Anyway, if you want a workaround, replace the "config %config" at line 441 with: config: scripts_basic outputmakefile FORCE $(Q)mkdir -p include/linux include/config $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=scripts/kconfig $@ %config: scripts_basic outputmakefile FORCE $(Q)mkdir -p include/linux include/config $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=scripts/kconfig $@ Although, I think make will still throw some warnings. I don't need to use such old kernels, but probably there are users using last stable xen-sources-2.6.18 Created attachment 272391 [details, diff]

I think these are the only kernel sources in portage, affected by make-3.8.2. Applying the attached patches resolves the problem with make menuconfig, although gcc will throgh lots of warnings (non-'fatal' though). CC'ing the Xen maintainers. ping. we need action here for bug 367265. CC qa@ so we can delete the ebuilds if they don't get fixed in reasonable time. When I first joined I was told something along the lines of "Mike F. needs this kernel around, don't remove." Out of courtesy, you may want to ask him if he still needs this hanging around, if not, I know I won't miss it. i no longer need it ... feel free to punt it punted What about all remain sys-kernel/* ? I know bug is about gentoo-sources but problem with make hits all old sources. |
