Given this, I don't understand why the build would not fail due to missing headers if only kernel-headers is installed. How is it that the kernel-source headers automatically 'override' the kernel-headers if kernel-source is installed? In other words, kernel-headers file '/usr/include/[sys]/<header>.h' includes 'linux/<header>.h', but if kernel-source is not installed, then 'linux/<header>.h' does not exist, yet the build does not fail. Care to explain? > Pkgs rebuilds such as NVIDIA_kernel Require that Both kernel-source and > kernel-header be installed. Too bad that NVIDIA can't fix their BuildRequires then. BTW, does it now compile with gcc != 2.96? In the past I've always had problems compiling with gcc >= 3.0 (so I had to set IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH before building. -- Sincerely, David Walluck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
