Bug 156938 – net-dialup/ltmodem fails to compile on kernels>=2.6.19

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Arthur Nascimento 2006-12-02 12:31:38 UTC]

With the removal of linux/config.h from the kernel and the new way of accounting dependencies on the linux kernel (/usr/src/linux/Documentation/smart-config.txt), the drivers for lucent winmodems (net-dialup/ltmodem) stopped compiling as of linux version from 2.6.19 on.

fix for ltmodem to compile on all kernels

This patch attempts to fix the ltmodem driver to compile correctly with any kernel version. I tested it on gentoo-sources-2.6.18-gentoo-r3 and vanilla-sources-2.6.19. It worked well on both cases.

A simple patch to fix the 2.6.19 linux/config.h regression on net-dialup/ltmodem. Better than the previous one, since there is no need for the backwards compatibility #if (I found out that the smart config thing goes way back as far as the 2.4 tree).

Fixed in cvs (without revision bump) by replacing config.h with autoconf.h.
