It confused me pretty badly yesterday, so I thought I'd post in case it can help someone. The ipw2200 ebuild is now masked, pending removal from portage (see current package.mask). So it's probably time to migrate to using the kernel's ipw2200 support. A problem arises because (AIUI) installing the ipw2200 ebuild removes what's needed in suspend2-sources to compile the kernel with its own ipw2200 support. Or maybe the removal was done manually; ISTR having to remove some files after being prompted by the ebuild. Anyway, trying to compile the kernel after configuring for ipw2200 support results in failure. The fix is to unmerge ipw2200 and ieee80211, then emerge suspend2-sources again before reconfiguring and recompiling. Thanks to Phil for filing a bug (invalid) and to Alon Bar-Lev for pointing toward the cause of the problem. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
