Description Patrick 2005-01-16 13:20:41 UTC

emerge madwifi-driver doesn't install modules correctly (only ath_hal), They somehow get compiled as .o instead of .ko seemingly...

I pasted the whole emerging, it's pretty self explanatory

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge madwifi-driver
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
emerge madwifi-driver
Calculating dependencies ...done!

Comment 1 ChazeFroy 2005-01-16 14:28:34 UTC

I also confirm this problem with the pre20050107 ebuild on vanilla sources 2.6.10.

Comment 2 Henrik Brix Andersen 2005-01-16 14:42:41 UTC

Adding solar and horton to CC:

Comment 3 Joël 2005-01-16 15:10:36 UTC

Same problem here.

I suspect, that probably by mistake, the 0.1_pre20050106 (which worked fine, for me at least) has recently been keyworded "-*", instead of the 0.1_pre20050107 (which doesn't work).

See, when we look at madwifi-tools, the version is still at 0.1_pre20050106 (and it's working fine).

So, shouldn't the keywords of 0.1_pre20050106 and 0.1_pre20050107 be inverted, or am I wrong ?

Comment 4 Patrick 2005-01-16 16:13:57 UTC

I can confirm Joel's idea:
unmerged 20050107
# emerge -C net-wireless/madwifi-driver
# echo =net-wireless/madwifi-driver-0.1pre20050106 >> /etc/portage/package.unmask
# emerge =net-wireless/madwifi-driver-0.1pre20050106
# modprobe <all the modules>
# /etc/init.d/net.ath0 start

works great

and let the fingers from emerge sync / emerge -u world because you can't:

# echo =net-wireless/madwifi-driver-0.1pre20050107 >> /etc/portage/package.mask

even if that would be pretty nice to avoid overwriting at next emerge -u world.
but probably it's fixed till then

greets patrick

Comment 5 Henrik Brix Andersen 2005-01-16 16:44:24 UTC

This should be fixed in the linux-mod.eclass. Please resync in a couple of hours and remerge. Reopen this bug if the problem still exists.
