looking at the list of updates after a fresh install of 2005.1 (2.6.12-r6) on my laptop which has both wired and wireless networking, I see an entry which says…

[blocks B] <=net-wireless/ipw2100-1.1.0 (is blocking net-wireless/ieee80211-1.0.3)

.

[ebuild N] net-wireless/ieee80211-1.0.3 –debug 61kb

[ebuild U] net-wirelss/ipw2100-1.1.2-r1 [1.1.0] –debug 96kb

 

After reading the portage documentation online, I’m a little confused.  Should I unmerge ipw2100-1.1.0 in order for the ieee package to emerge? (when I read through the packages that were necessary for the wireless to work, I found that I should emerge both.  Any input, as always, is appreciated.
