[zebulon2]

@zebulon2 Note that you are sending a lot of commits, all the ones form @paspro fork.
For 4.12 only 3f0b82e is needed and for 4.11.9, check #50 that contains the correct fix.
Consider close this one.

@gordboy yes, the 4.12 commit 3f0b82e is incomplete and doesn't build - this is the fix I've just submitted to the paspro repo: https://github.com/paspro/rtl8812au/pull/4

If anyone wants to cherry-pick it they're more than welcome.

@MilhouseVH yes I committed something very similar myself, about 3 hours ago, to my 5.2.9 as part of my AIO 4.12 commit gordboy/rtl8812au@2217dd0 Try to keep up squire... :)

[MilhouseVH]

Yes, sorry - it's annoying seeing these same build issues crop up with a new/different repository when you think you'd already fixed it 2 months ago... :)

@MilhouseVH I'm beginning to think you and I are the only actual humans here, and the rest are auto-commit bots as part of some arcane Google conspiracy to obfuscate ... anyways 5.2.9 is going very swimmingly. And I shall search your stuff first in future, instead of working things out for myself. Take care, squire.

I said the commit was dirty and needed review & testing.

And with 2 months away without my computer it's kinda hard to keep up or even fix it, but you guys seem to got it going, so.. Im out :)

[MilhouseVH]

@zebulon2 you've pulled a lot of other commits I'm now pretty sure you did not intend to include in this PR. You need to rebase this pull request without the other commits.

[MilhouseVH]

@zebulon2: Please close this as it can't possibly be merged in this state, and #50 is now available which does the job.

[zebulon2]

Apologies for the issue. Glad this is now resolved.
