Bug 174706 – can't compile net-firewall/conntrack with a 2.6.20 kernel

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Olivier Huber 2007-04-15 18:24:22 UTC]

As far as I understand, there are changes in netfilter's config names. So according to http://patchwork.netfilter.org/netfilter-devel/patch.pl?id=240 we should now use CONFIG_NF_CT_NETLINK instead of CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK_NETLINK. So I try to update the ebuild.

Is it also possible to keyword it ~amd64, it seems to compile and run fine on my box. Or should I submit a new bug ?

Thanks

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -v net-firewall/conntrack
2. 
3.

Actual Results:  
emerge fails on kernel config check

I would move the CONFIG_CHECK assignment into pkg_setup, after linux-mod_pkg_setup has been called. After setting CONFIG_CHECK, call check_extra_config (found in linux-info.eclass) and add a comment explaining the situation.

I change the ebuild according to dsd's advice
