‘make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop. ‘Error message on Gentoo Linux

I came across the above mentioned problem. I have done with the number of avuDN world updates and executed following.

Quote:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild N ] sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.0.6 USE="symlink -build -deblob"
frank ~ # make menuconfig
make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop.

Any help to resolve the matter will be appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.

In case you are trying to emerge the later version of gentoo sources done by world update. It will simply install new kernel sources to /usr/src/. symlink /usr/src/linux also be updated to the latest kernel. You will also have previous version of the kernel and still it can be removed. You can execute below mentioned command.

Code:

---

ls /usr/src –l

Well the symlink is supposed to be update since you are having symlink use flag. you can do the above mentioned changes but you have to take care of that you will need to update symlink manually.

After going through the problem you wanted to keep or depclean from the removing of packages which you wanted to keep including the kernels. You have to use below mentioned command to add package into the world set.

Code:

---

emerge --noreplace (packagename)
