Description Mark Trolley 2002-06-15 14:36:26 UTC
Attempting to merge the rivatv package attempts to merge 
sys-kernel/linux-sources-2.4.19-r1 as well.  Here is the result of 'emerge 
--pretend rivatv': 
 
These are the packages that I would merge, in order. 
 
Calculating dependencies ...done! 
[ebuild  N   ] sys-kernel/linux-sources-2.4.19-r1 to / 
[ebuild   R  ] media-video/rivatv-0.8.0 to / 
 
(of course the R was an N). 
 
Attempting to go ahead with the merge resulted in the following message: 
 
 * On 22 April, 2002, we started using a new and improved organizational 
 * structure for our kernel source ebuilds.  The new system is much easier 
 * to understand and use.  This ebuild is a "stub" ebuild designed with 
 * the sole purpose of explaining how the new system works. 
 
If you're seeing this message, you probably typed "emerge 
sys-kernel/linux-sources."  Our new kernel source organization doesn't have 
a linux-sources ebuild anymore.  Instead, we now offer the following selection 
of Linux kernel source ebuilds.  You should choose the best one for your needs: 
 
 * sys-kernel/gentoo-sources 
The gentoo-sources ebuild is our replacement for our previous linux-sources 
ebuild.  We try to ensure that this kernel is very fast and stable and we 
recommend this kernel for most people.  However, XFS support is no longer 
included in this kernel.  If you use XFS, use sys-kernel/xfs-sources. 
 
 * sys-kernel/vanilla-sources 
The vanilla-sources ebuild installs a "mainline" kernel source tree, giving 
you the exact same thing as if you downloaded a stock kernel from kernel.org.

'emerge --nodeps rivatv' worked properly however.

Updated rivatv ebuild

Here's an updated rivatv ebuild that I made. I also cleaned up the ebuild file
and made it conform with lintool --show-details. mkeadle from #gentoo tested it
for me and he confirmed it worked. take the tarball and extract to
/usr/portage/media-video/rivatv/ and test away. :)

Thanks, Cardoe!
