Get the package updated to not need to do a stupid kernel configuration |
| 15 |
check is the proper solution. |

Quite honestly, the linux-info eclass needs to be completely rewritten. |
| 18 |
The eclass should *not* fail by default, for any reason. Any failures |
| 19 |
should be optional and opt-in only. The linux-mod eclass, on the other |
| 20 |
hand, *should* fail. Basically, not being able to get information about |
| 21 |
the running/compiled kernel in a package which is not a kernel module |
| 22 |
should never be a failure. In the current code, it is a failure. |
