Hiya,

Just been going through the ebuilds with a CHECK_CONFIG as part of bug 283320, and spotted that whilst this inherits linux-mod, it probably only needs linux-info since the unpack, compile, install, and postinst phases are overriden.

It looks like this ebuild was copy/pasted from the ivtv ones, since there's a check that the kernel >=2.6.26 that suggests installing ivtv, even though the dependencies specifically block it.

Could use a look-at/clean-up basically...  5:)

I've changed the CONFIG_CHECKs to ~option, but it's not clear that they're necessary for the userland utils?

    MODULE_NAMES="saa717x(extra:${S}/i2c-drivers)"

It installs saa717x, or at least it should. If its not then there's an issue...
