Re: [gentoo-user] Unable to calculate Linux Kernel version [New Thread]
Try this... ls -l /usr/src/linux uname -r these should give you the same version. If not you need to adjust the linux symlink to reflect the kernel version you are running. Then cd /usr/src/linux cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) ./ make oldconfig make Now you should be able to do the emerges you wanted to. The point is to have your source tree in working condition, and findable, as opposed to clean. If you run different kernel versions often, try adding a few lines to /etc/conf.d/ like # -- quick hack to ease work of updating kernels and make emerges consistent # ebegin Refreshing kernel source link to running kernel. rm -f /usr/src/linux if ! ln -s /usr/src/linux-$(uname -r) /usr/src/linux then ewarnBugger ... could not update.

Done, and there is an improvement in the error code at least: * Determining the location of the kernel source code * Found kernel source directory: * /usr/src/linux * Found kernel object directory: * /tmp/kernel * Found sources for kernel version: * 2.6.12-gentoo-r10 * getfilevar requires 2 variables, with the second a valid file. *getfilevar VARIABLE CONFIGFILE * Could not find a usable .config in the kernel source directory. * Please ensure that /usr/src/linux points to a configured set of Linux sources. * If you are using KBUILD_OUTPUT, please set the environment var so that * it points to the necessary object directory so that it might find .config. Why would the .config that's in the directory not be usable? I just did the make oldconfig make as you suggested - which ran without errors ... I guess if I could read/understand bash I'd find out from linux-info.eclass what it wanted of .config - but that's where I come unstuck.

Hi - have re-compiled as indicated, but it hasn't helped. Now
running 2.6.12-gentoo-r10 without problems, but still have the
previous error on *some* ebuilds i.e. svgalib lm_sensors.
As established earlier correct links are all in place, the
correct .config is in the source, directory, as is Makefile -
and /include/linux/verion.h exists.
I have googled extensively, including gentoo forums, where similar
errors have been produced, but nothing suggested solved my problem.
Most were related to non-existent .config and/or Makefile.
Following is the error message:
snip
!!! ERROR: media-libs/svgalib-1.9.21-r1 failed.
!!! Function linux-info_pkg_setup, Line 526, Exitcode 1
!!! Unable to calculate Linux Kernel version

When I look at Line 526 in /usr/portage/eclass/linux-info.eclass I
find the following:
snip
525linux-info_pkg_setup() {
526get_version || die Unable to calculate Linux Kernel version
527[ -n ${CONFIG_CHECK} ] check_extra_config;

From here on in - I'm struggling with bash and can't make sense of
it: any
pointers would be appreciated.

Hi,
Check to make sure that /usr/src/linux link point to your
current/working kernel. svgalib depends on kernel link to build.
