Sorry to bother you again with this... |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
I have tried to remaster a gnap core with a alsa-utils. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
'ebuild'-ing the alsa-utils: |
| 34 |
# ebuild /usr/portage/media-sound/alsa-utils/alsa-utils-1.0.9a.ebuild |
| 35 |
install |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Making the extension: |
| 38 |
# cd /var/tmp/portage/alsa-utils-1.0.9a/image |
| 39 |
# tar -cjvf /usr/lib/gnap/extensions/gnapext_alsa-utils.tbz2 * |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Remaster the core with the modified kernel and the alsa-util extension: |
| 42 |
#gnap_remaster -k kernel.tar.bz2 -m modules.tar.bz2 -e alsa-utils -o |
| 43 |
newcore.tar |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Then I can create my boot image: |
| 46 |
# gnap_overlay -g newcore.tar .... |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
This boots nicely and running Gentoo has all the built files from |
| 49 |
alsa-utils. However, they won't work. |
| 50 |
In my enthausiasm I forgot that alsa-utils is probably depending on |
| 51 |
other packages. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
And indeed: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
# emerge --pretend --emptytree --tree alsa-utils |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
Calculating dependencies ...done! |

I assume that some of these will probably already be available in the |
| 86 |
original GNAP core. |
| 87 |
But some of them I need to add. |
| 88 |
|
| 89 |
What would be the best way to figure out which ones are already in the |
| 90 |
original GNAP core and which ones I need to add? |
| 91 |
Also, is there a way to 'ebuild' alsa-utils and its dependencies in one |
| 92 |
go? |
| 93 |
|
| 94 |
Again, thanks for the help so far..! |
