Bug 159823 – net-dialup/linux-atm doesn't compile with 2.6.19 headers

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Emanuele Tamponi 2007-01-03 02:55:54 UTC]

The error when emerging linux-atm:

Making all in arpd

And that's the error when compiling ppp:

i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -Os -march=i686 -pipe -I../../../include/linux '-DVERSION="3.3"' -c -o if.o -fPIC if.c
if.c: In function ‘openInterface’:
if.c:423: error: storage size of ‘ifr’ isn’t known
make[2]: *** [if.o] Error 1

Strangely, this error doesn't stop the compilation, that goes "well", but suddently an error occours at the beginning of the installation because rp-pppoe.so doesn't exist!

Both linux-atm and ppp used to compile fine with older kernels and headers...

The error on installing ppp:

>>> Source compiled.

>>> Install ppp-2.4.4-r4 into /var/tmp/portage/net-dialup/ppp-2.4.4-r4/image/ category net-dialup

[Comment 2 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2007-01-03 03:00:45 UTC]

One ebuild == one bug. File a separate bug for the ppp issue.

[Comment 3 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) 2007-01-03 04:54:57 UTC]

Not really net-dialup turf. 
Reassigning to toolchain team.

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2007-01-03 08:34:49 UTC]

not a bug in linux-headers, linux-atm is stupid and defines _LINUX_NETDEVICE_H

[Comment 5 SpanKY 2007-01-03 08:59:11 UTC]

fixed in cvs
