Description Andrea Cerrito 2003-08-03 15:36:29 UTC

I cannot emerge linux-wlan-ng, the emerge fails with errors, some of them not
related to kernel 2.6.0-test2.
BTW, linux-wlan-ng compiles successful if done by hand (I mean, not using emerge).

Have a look to "Actual Results" and note all the configure errors.
The "Expected Results" is done by untarring the archive and giving same
configurations parameters by hand.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge linux-wlan-ng
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
>>> Source unpacked.
mv: impossibile fare stat di `default.config': No such file or directory

Comment 1 Sebastian Sjöberg 2003-09-01 13:00:39 UTC

I have the same problem. I figured out that it was the ARCH variable that interfered with the kernel buildsystem thus this error:
Makefile:272: arch/x86/Makefile: No such file or directory

When I unset the ARCH variable in the ebuild it seems to compile but I get a sandbox violation instead when the kernel buildsystem is about to perform stage 2 of the module building.

Just some additional info, I don't know how to fix it.

Comment 2 Sebastian Sjöberg 2003-10-10 16:00:29 UTC

Ok, I had some time to fix this now however I did it against linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1_pre13
since it was the only version that seemed to work with linux-2.6.0-test7.

Note, this is a strange way to fix it...

1. Copy pre11 to pre13 and make all that other stuff (digest).
2. Add an "unset ARCH" into the ebuild after the MY_ARCH assignment.
3. Get the Configure file from the pcmcia_cs package, edit it by removing
the test that tests for the right version of module utilities. It might be
updated in a later pcmcia_cs but I didn't bother to look.
4. I added a "cp <the edited pcmcia_cs Configure file > ." before the place
where it gets called in the ebuild.
5. DISABLE_SANDBOX=1 emerge linux-wlan-ng

It worked!

Comment 3 Sebastian Sjöberg 2003-10-10 16:10:29 UTC

DISABLE_SANDBOX=1 is wrong, it should be SANDBOX_DISABLED=1. Sorry!

Comment 4 Andrea Cerrito 2003-10-14 01:31:42 UTC

Why do you need SANDBOX_DISABLED=1?

Comment 5 Andrea Cerrito 2003-10-26 02:00:49 UTC

I think I've found the probelm.
There are too many "mv default.config config.in".
This little patch seems to solve all problems.

Can someone test it?

Comment 7 Peter Johanson (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

2004-02-06 23:46:35 UTC

Okay. 0.2.1_pre17 is in portage now with unsetting ARCH, using sed-4 so we can avoid all the annoying copies of that one file. There's info in the pkg_postinst about the sandbox issues, but i'll add a check for sandbox and 2.6 and die if it's a problem and let people know. Closing this mishmash of bugs as FIXED. reopen if there's still problems.
