1 Hello!
2
3 I wanted to make a big update on my gentoo system, but I got error when
4 reaching x11-base/x11-drm-20060608 package. It compiles successfully, but the
5 installation fails:

7 >>> Install x11-drm-20060608
8 into /var/tmp/portage/x11-base/x11-drm-20060608/image/ category x11-base

24 For some unknow reason to me, portage wants to create
25 a /var/tmp/portage/x11-base/x11-drm-20060608/image//lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r4made
26 by genkernel/x11-drm directory, with spaces in the dirname, and that doesn't
27 want do work of course.
28 The question is that why does it put spaces in the dirname? I made this
29 "madebygenkernel" label when compiled a kernel to distinguish from the one
30 compiled by hand, but I didn't use whitespace.
31
32 Thanks for the help in advance,
33 Istvan
