Package: ar5523
Severity: normal
Hi,
I'm using a USB WLAN adaptor with AR5523 chipset.
I found this very useful description by GeoffSimmons:
http://wiki.debian.org/ar5523
But at step 4 I get an error message:
$ m-a a-i ar5523

I'm not sure why this compilation fails.
I'm on Debian lenny and this is my c-compiler:
$ cc --version
cc (Debian 4.3.2-1.1) 4.3.2
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
