I've added your ebuilds to the overlay for both the SVN and 0.10 release versions. Thanks! > Also I have some related questions: > 1. Is there any need in --enable-hal option in usb-rndis-ng? Without HAL > ng driver makes no sense to odccm, and without odccm all this system > makes no sense :) May be it is better to make hard depend on HAL? This makes sense to me. Can someone more familiar with usb-rndis-ng comment on whether usb-rndis-ng has any use without HAL? If there is indeed no use without HAL, then I think we should go a step further than Dmitry's suggestion and just require HAL in the ./configure script (and raise an error if it isn't found). > 2.

While I'm using *9999 ebuilds I could convert\check all > 0.10.0 ebuilds to use tar.gz from SF mirrors (if no one else doing this :). I have everything building from SVN for ease of maintenance. Keeping them all as similar as possible (all that needs to change typically is the repository URI) makes them just a little bit easier to keep track of. The only problem that I've come across with building everything out of SVN is the one mentioned in the Wiki page for the ebuilds. This only occurs when you switch between emerging the 0.10.0 release and the SVN trunk versions. Unfortunately, this problem will also surface when we make another release and people emerge the new ebuilds. If there is a simple change in the ebuilds to get around this problem while still building out of SVN, I'd like that (Dmitry -- do you know of a way?). If not, then perhaps building from the Sourceforge tarballs is best. -- Richard Alimi Department of Computer Science Yale University
