Description Alex Cannon 2005-10-31 07:17:01 UTC

This is my first bug report.  On my old laptop that doesn't have PCI support, I
don't have PCI support in the kernel.  When I emerge pcmcia-cs, it tries to build
cardbus support and there is no way to keep it from building with cardbus, it
fails because there is no PCI support in the kernel.  Should there be a cardbus
USE flag? Or should it check for PCI support? Thanks - Off to download the
pcmcia-cs package manually.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Emerge pcmcia-cs without PCI souuprt in your kernel
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The Build fails with an error

Expected Results:  
The software should have checked for PCI support in the kernel and disabled the
cardbus option if there wasn't.
