Hi.  I tried to compile net-fs/mount-cifs because when I used smbfs I
got a very prominent message from the kernel saying that smbfs would
be removed in 2.6.27 and I should use cifs instead.  However when I
tried to compile it, I got the following error:

less /usr/portage/net-fs/mount-cifs/ChangeLog

There it says:

  11 Jun 2008; Tiziano Müller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
  +mount-cifs-3.0.30.ebuild:
  Version bump (fixes bug #225509, patch included)

http://bugs.gentoo.org says about bug #225509:

  net-fs/mount-cifs-3.0.28 /w glibc-2.8 update: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared

That means you have to use mount-cifs-3.0.30.

Why I wrote all that down? To point out that looking at the ChangeLog of an ebuild can give an answer without even asking ;)
