Sure, but it should not stop the emerge of 'sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel'
unless there's missing in the toolchain.


If the .config is wrong as appears to be, yes it is. I have checked
default .configs from sparc64 and has CONFIG_NET enabled in one 6.6
gentoo kernel version. Because of this I doubt really that the mistake
is under default .config file that shipped gentoo sources.

You can check this:

   less /usr/src/linux-6.6.30-gentoo/arch/sparc/configs/sparc64_defconfig


Oops!  My bad.  I misread the bug report.  The OP was not emerging 'sys-
kernel/gentoo-sources', but 'sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel' which should emerge and
install.

The bug report includes a .config file, which has set:

CONFIG_NET_NS=y
CONFIG_NAMESPACES=y
CONFIG_PID_NS=y
CONFIG_NET_NS=y

among others.


IMHO Gentoo_kernel compiles kernel with genkernel, and genkernel usually makes use OLDCONFIG="yes" by default with SAVE_CONFIG="yes" in /etc/genkernel.conf. We have not idea from where their .config comes from since 6.6 kernel has CONFIG_NET enable in their default .config in sparc64, I don't see any reason to don't be enabled in one recent kernel...
