Description Rene Androsch 2004-01-03 05:18:28 UTC

It seems to need the 2.5 kernel sources. But it doesn't have a dependency for it.
And it seems to search it also in the 2.4.22-gentoo-r2 sources where it also won't find it.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -qD ipsec-tools
2.
3.

It needs 2.6, not 2.5 sources; I've added a fatal warning to the ebuild now A dependency wouldn't work as there are many kernel trees which provide 2.6 sources, and it is up to the user to select one, not for Portage. Thanks.
