Attachments: Ebuild fixing missing config options in wpa_supplicant build

Description Sven Wegener gentoo-dev 2016-10-11 10:40:35 UTC
Although the ebuilds contain these commands:

	# Enabling background scanning.
	Kconfig_style_config BGSCAN_SIMPLE
	Kconfig_style_config BGSCAN_LEARN

bgscan support is not activated, because the example .config does not contain any commented or uncommented version of these options and Kconfig_style_config is unable to activate them with its sed calls.

Ebuild fixing missing config options in wpa_supplicant build

This bug causes a bunch of options to be missing in generated .config:
CONFIG_IBSS_RSN
CONFIG_EAP_TLV
CONFIG_EAP_EXE
CONFIG_BGSCAN_SIMPLE
CONFIG_BGSCAN_LEARN
CONFIG_MESH
CONFIG_DRIVER_ATMEL
CONFIG_DRIVER_HOSTAP
CONFIG_DRIVER_IPW
CONFIG_DRIVER_RALINK

I attached a proposed (not so pretty, but working properly) ebuild that resolves this issue.
