The following works here: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
1) ebuild `equery w loop-aes` unpack |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
2) cd $PORTDIR/sys-fs/loop-aes-<version>/work/loop-AES-<version>/ |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
3) make EXTRA_CIPHERS=y |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
4) cd ../../ |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
5) touch .compiled |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
6) cd |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
7) ebuild `equery w loop-aes` merge |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
(I actually stopped only up to step 3, but it finished w/o error) |

Since you said something about lack of documentation about loop-aes, |
| 30 |
have you already found this? |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
http://loop-aes.sourceforge.net/loop-AES.README |

NOTE: "In order to support AES and other ciphers, mount, umount, |
| 36 |
losetup, swapon and swapoff need to be patched and |
| 37 |
recompiled." |

|
| 39 |
There's a hope - Gentoo may provide a patched version of util-linux. |
| 40 |
In case those tools are not already patched I wouldn't go that far on |
| 41 |
a system which is not especially dedicated for this encryption test of |
| 42 |
yours. |
