Hello.
I have a problem with installing lirc. Look below for the output and note that kernel-config is masked in /usr/portage/profile/package.mask.

The simpliest way to fix is to change in app-misc/lirc-0.7.0-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS to stable on x86 as it works for me.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge lirc

You will have to use the lirc_serial kernel module. 
 
Now enter 'make' and 'make install' to compile and install the package. 
 
 * /usr/src/linux is a symbolic link 
 * Determining the real directory of the Linux kernel source code 
 * Building for Linux 2.6.9-gentoo-r8 found in /usr/src/linux 
 * which outputs to /usr/src/linux 
 * By not using the kernel's ability to output to an alternative 
 * directory, some external module builds may fail. 
 * See <insert link to user doc here> 
 * Due to the 2.6 kernel build system, external module compilation 
 * with a normal setup requires write access to //usr/src/linux 
 * There are several ways to fix/prevent this. 
 * Users can willingly let portage make this writable by doing 
 * # config-kernel --allow-writable yes 
 * However, this is considered a security risk! 
 * 
 * The prefered method is to enable Gentoo's new 'koutput' method 
 * for kernel modules. See the doc 
 * http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/2.6-koutput-user.xml 
 * To enable this, you'll need to run 
 * # config-kernel --output-dir /var/tmp/kernel-output 
 * and then install a new kernel

Comment 1 Mateusz Kijowski 2004-12-19 17:23:56 UTC

It seems to be solved in lirc-0.7.0, which is ~x86 ATM. At least it worked for me.

Yes. It is fixed.

Closing.
