OK, thanks. In earlier ebuilds, we actually changed the /usr/src/linux symlink |
| 8 |
on the raw filesystem so that the reiserfs-utils would compile correctly. Now |
| 9 |
that they're in a separate package, we don't temporarily change the |
| 10 |
/usr/src/linux symlink and we need to be careful about things like this. I |
| 11 |
just noticed that the symlink trick is gone from our current ebuild -- I'll |
| 12 |
make sure that things use the right sources from now on. |

BTW, here are a few things you need to know: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Our default tabstop for ebuilds is 4. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The sys-kernel/linux and sys-kernel/linux-sources ebuilds should be kept |
| 19 |
in-sync. When you make changes to one, copy the file to the other directory |
| 20 |
(changing the file name from "linux" to "linux-sources" or vice-versa.) The |
| 21 |
ebuild will auto-detect whether it's a "linux" or "linux-sources" and react |
| 22 |
appropriately. |

Keep up the excellent work, :) |
