Just bumping the ebuild is not enough if you read the bug report carefully. The 2.55 version ebuild uses a custom tarball created by the reporter of the bug. So you need to create a new tarball, plus you probably need to revisit the gentoo.patch which is applied. Regards, Daniel I did not read. Sorry if some information I gave are not correct.

With the scanner connected and powered on I did an 'updatedb locate scanner' and it didn't come up with anything in /dev, I don't have a /dev/usb/ directory, and the output of 'ls /dev/usb*' is the same with the scanner on or off. Any idea where that file might be? Those two commands also don't mention it. Another way to get info is to power on the scanner and plug it in, then `modprobe -r` the appropriate kernel module(s) and then modprobe them while doing `tail -F /var/log/messages`. The kernel (udev) will create the appropriate /dev entries upon successful modprobe. In order for your user to be registered as a member of a group you have to log completely out (including your X session) and back in. You can verify your group memberships with the groups command. Judging from what you've said I bet it was merely an issue of adding your user to the scanner or usb group. My experience with usb scanners is they generally just work whereas when I start up my SCSI scanner I always have to remodprobe the kernel drivers and then `chown :scanner /dev/sg? chmod 0770 /dev/sg?`, but there's probably a better (right) way to do that. :-) Justin

Is the issue actually known and would it be the same all the time ?
The used option will be foo or bar ?
I would think, that the command is econf --configure-option=bar
--configure-option=foo.
econf does:
configure --prefix=/usr \
--host=${CHOST} \
--mandir=/usr/share/man \
--infodir=/usr/share/info \
--datadir=/usr/share \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var/lib \
$@ \
${LOCAL_EXTRA_ECONF}
Where ${LOCAL_EXTRA_ECONF} is your ${EXTRA_ECONF} plus some more
settings and $@ is --configure-option=foo.
portage seems to not deal with this case. I'm afraid of what it could
happen if it's depending on the configure script.

So go ahead, boot a livecd get the appropriate stage3 tarball and portage tarball and begin to love gentoo. If you are waiting for the new release of the installer, then I would recommend you to do it better the normal gentoo way as descripted in the handbook http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml. cheers justin signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Convincing people that Gentoo is alive becomes tricky because the final is months late and little motion on the home page. That's about all most people inspect. I think you misunderstand how Gentoo works. First of all, there's no such thing as the latest Gentoo version. What you do have is the current state of the portage tree and that is constantly changing. All that 2008 is, is a workable snapshot of a basic system that you use to install Gentoo. The next thing you do is update the tree to the latest state, and update the system by recompiling everything that has changed since your CD image was built. There's only one reason to wait for the 2008 CD, and that is if you have hardware that cannot boot from existing installers due to driver issues. So this is a bootstrap problem, not a latest version problem. For example, this very notebook I'm using now is 7 months old, and I used a 2005 installer CD to install - it just happened to be the only one I conveniently had handy at the time. Gentoo is not Ubuntu, don't try to think of it in Ubuntu terms. Don't claim that this confuses new users, because those new users are mistaken. Shoehorning Gentoo into something where the latest installer is of vital importance is never going to work and all attempts to do so will fail, in much the same way that awaiting linux kernel 2.6 SP9 is also never going to work out So bottom line, impressions of Gentoo are going south even before we test. That's a false assumption. You or your users are looking at a blue sky and asking why it isn't green with pink dots because those colours are nice. Doesn't work that way. Some sort of progress bar or chart showing bugs squashed and new reported, maybe?? At least some kind of ticker showing expected final release date? Counting lines of code or something? Personally I don't care when final ships - just knowing present expectations or status with an easy home page glance is all I ask. OK, so this is what you'd like. Unfortunately you can't get it. What could be done though is a nice big clear link to an article that explains how Gentoo works and why OS versioning is not relevant. Perhaps a chart laying out the latest stale and unstable versions of major packages, categorized by arch would suit your needs. Distrowatch's list of packages provided would be a good place to start.

Re: [gentoo-user] F77 Provided through /etc/portage/env/*

I am using a couple of fortran progs and not all are happy with ifort but some benefit allot of its use. As I am lazy and dont want to change my make.conf all the time I provided the F77, FC and FLAGS for those packages which support ifort through /etc/portage/env/categorie/package. This worked for a long time, but now some thing has changed and I dont know what. The variables are still passed to the emerge but the F77 and FC isnt used by emake any more. See following example: ifort is chosen by the fortran.eclass and configure uses it as well. But in the make part only the ifort spezific FFLAGS are use together with gfortran. What version of portage is this? emerge --info? It is possible that there might be a regression between portage versions. If you've updated portage recently, try downgrading by masking the current version in /etc/portage/package.mask. I tryed this first. The second thing I tried was downgrading bash but all that doesnt help. Emerging (1 of 1) sci-chemistry/shelx-20060317 to / * shelx-20060317.tgz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ...
