[gentoo-user] Package in world file is not installed
I get this message whenever I run emerge world: *** Package in world file is not installed: sys-kernel/hardened-dev-sources It is definitely installed because /usr/src/linux points to it and I'm running on it. I wonder if this is related to a problem I'm having with this kernel not picking up a re-emerging of madwifi-driver. - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
