I would just add USE="-svga" to make.conf because I
don't need svgalib.
I don't plan on playing console games, so I'll change USE to -svga for
now. I can always emerge --newuse system later on anyway.
Now that I've been thinking about it for a while, if OpenSSH needs Perl,
shouldn't Perl be built before OpenSSH? This seems like an ebuild bug
to me.
If you want to compile it then you need the kernel
source and .config in /usr/src/linux. If you've lost
your .config then maybe you can do "gzip -dc
/proc/config.gz > /usr/src/linux/.config". Then run
the following commands:
cd /usr/src/linux
make oldconfig
make modules_prepare
That should configure the sources sufficiently for you
to compile modules.
That would work, except I haven't reached step seven of the
installation. I'm doing it from stage1, and I'm only up to stage two
right now.
