I want to be able to run the Squash fs. You can get a patch for squashfs 3.3, which you install into your kernel source, at
http://squashfs.sourceforge.net/ .
Then set the option filesystems/miscellaneous-filesystems/squashfs in menuconfig.
Alas into the newest version 2.6.25.1 (and higher) the patch can be installed, but at compile-time kernel .8.25.4 quits with an errormsg:

and the compilation halts....
Questions:
Did others suffer from this? Is it a bug or did I something wrong?
Where to complain? at the squash-fs site or at the Kernel guis?
A solution here is welcome of course.
Kernel 2.6.25.4 without the squash-patch runs flawless for me.
