Description Shannon Barber 2004-08-04 07:51:21 UTC
An updated ebuild for redhat-sources.
If I'm not mistaken, Gentoo doesn't have an nptl enabled 2.4 kernel anymore.  This is problematic for environments (such as mine) where I'm running an nptl/2.6 build but occasionally need to run software that only runs on a 2.4 kernel (e.g. Raional ClearCase).

Many thanks for submitting this.
unfortunately this isnt currently something we want in the tree due to lack of people to maintain this and also because of the unsupportablility of the red hat patches.
If the situation however changes, we will re-address.

Many thanks.
