loop encryption problem
gentoo problem:
icebird ~ # mount -t reiserfs /dev/hdc1 /secure/ -o loop,encryption=XXX Password: Error: Password must be at least 20 characters.
Just recompile:
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge "=util-linux-2.12i-r1"
I think this should only be a temporary solution. rebuild your encrypted partition with a correct password!
Perhaps a interesting link:

mac :: gpsdrive on mac osx tiger
requirements:
- fink
- xcode from mac osx
fink
install the following packages with their -dev volumes:
- pkg
- gtk+-2.0
- glib2-dev
- pcre
- atk1
- gdk-pixbuf
maybe there are some more. i installed gimp previous to gpsdrive. this might be a hint. please tell me if i lost one.
gpsdrive
because gpsdrive is looking for gcc3.x and tiger is providing gcc4.0 compatibility you need to change in configure line 20858 to
if $CC -dumpversion|egrep -q "^4.*"; then
then you can ./configure && make
if you just upgraded to tiger make sure you have installed the new DevUtils with gcc4.0
