[gentoo-user] Problem emerging alsa-utils-1.0.20-r4

I seem to have the same problem like this bug report:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=281434

which I am not sure why it has been marked as resolved/invalid.

This is what happens:
============================================

============================================

Have you had such a problem?  What's the fix?

I have both files mentioned:

# ls -la /etc/modules.d/alsa
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 202 Jan  5  2009 /etc/modules.d/alsa
# ls -la /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1028 Jul  4 09:27 /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf

Obviously, the existence of /etc/modules.d/alsa does not allow emerge to
continue. I think you must merge alsa file to alsa.conf and then delete
alsa.

Perhaps I'm too tired to understand the message ... is it telling to move 
file /etc/modules.d/alsa to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf by hand?

On one system I just had I had to copy the contents of /etc/modules.d/ 
alsa to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf, while on another system to remove / 
etc/modules.d/alsa (it's contents were already in /etc/modprobe.d/ 
alsa.conf).

Hint, keep a backup of /etc/modules.d/alsa until after you have  
verified the upgrade is working.

HTH,
Roy

Yes. As I can see, these files are identical in sytax. Just add information
from alsa to alsa.conf if any and them rm alsa.

Yes.

/etc/modules.d/ is a kernel 2.4 thing. kernel 2.6 uses /etc/modprobe.d/ and 
the modprobe utilities will automatically search it for config files, which 
makes /etc/modprobe.conf and modules-update obsolete.

Someone has obviously taken the brave step and put a stake in the sane with a 
signpost saying "2.4 is not supported".
