Description DaggyStyle 2010-03-30 13:26:42 UTC
hello, first feel free to move this bug to the right place or correct me if the cause is wrong.

I have a desktop which is a binhost for a laptop, the hw specs of the two is pretty similar (both intel cpu, ati card, similar chipset). now I've emerged on the binhost broadcom-sta without any problem, now when I emerge the same package on the with the -K flag on the laptop, emerge complains that ~!B43, ~!SSB and ~!MAC80211 are not set when they should be, here is the actual output:
#
 * Checking for suitable kernel configuration options...
#
 *   CONFIG_~!B43:       is not set when it should be.
#
 *   CONFIG_~!SSB:       is not set when it should be.
#
 *   CONFIG_~!MAC80211:  is not set when it should be.
#
 * Please check to make sure these options are set correctly.
#
 * Failure to do so may cause unexpected problems.

checking to see laptop config returns this:
dagg@NCC-5001-D /usr/src/linux $ cat .config | grep MAC80211
# CONFIG_MAC80211 is not set
dagg@NCC-5001-D /usr/src/linux $ cat .config | grep SSB
CONFIG_SSB_POSSIBLE=y
# CONFIG_SSB is not set
dagg@NCC-5001-D /usr/src/linux $ cat .config | grep B43
dagg@NCC-5001-D /usr/src/linux $ 

now when I try to emerge it on the laptop without the -K I don't get the same warning msg.
here is my emerge --info:

couldn't rephrase it better myself, thanks. I hope this will be solved soon.
Comment 4 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2010-03-30 19:41:13 UTC
Nowhere in this bug do you say what package you were trying to install!
I can't even start to debug without knowing that.
Comment 5 DaggyStyle 2010-03-31 14:19:07 UTC
actually, I did, 5th line from the top (without the empty line), third word from the left, it's broadcom-sta
Comment 6 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2010-03-31 19:17:01 UTC
I thought that was the name of the binhost machine due to the wording.
Updating the summary with a clear indication of the package.
Comment 7 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2010-03-31 19:23:04 UTC
Reproduction instructions:
1. emerge -B broadcom-sta
2. emerge -K --nodeps broadcom-sta
Comment 8 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2010-03-31 19:33:49 UTC
Fixed in 1.99 of the linux-mod.eclass, please sync and regenerate your kernel mod binpkgs to get the fix.
