Also, shouldn't the line SRC_URI="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-${OKV}.tar.bz2 http://www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/distfiles/${KV}.patch.bz2" be the following: SRC_URI="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-${OKV}.tar.bz2 http://www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/distfiles/linux-gentoo-${KV}.patch.bz2" ? All the previous kernel patches seem to start with linux-gentoo. I can merge the new kernel now. Thanks. I spoke too soon. The patches were not applied. Since the patch is called
2.4.19-gentoo-r8.patch.bz2 and not linux-gentoo-2.4.19-gentoo-r8.patch.bz2, a
line must be changed from
cat ${DISTDIR}/linux-gentoo-${KV}.patch.bz2 | bzip2 -d | patch -p1 || die
to
cat ${DISTDIR}/${KV}.patch.bz2 | bzip2 -d | patch -p1 || die
Alternatively, the patch name can be changed, so that is consistent with the
other patch names.

fixes kernel source directory name
The ebuild currently leaves the kernel source directory named linux-2.4.19. It
should probably be called linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r8. This patch fixes that. I
assume this is probably what we want.
My patch also incorporates the change in comment #3. -r8 is a non-entity... please use 2.4.19-r9 |
