Hi. I've used your software 2 or 3 years for my, now old, HDTC-2US to schedule recordings of ATSC programs with kaffeine, thanks. Last year, newer kernels in Mageia, ROSA, OpenMandriva, and any distro I tried all failed the kernel module build in what looks to me the same way.
The latest I have made to work is 4.6.7-nrj-desktop-1rosa-x86_64 on ROSA.
4.9.30-desktop-1.mga6 on my installation of MGA6 RC fails with the same message, below, as all the failures. I installed 4.4.68-tmb-desktop-1.mga5 along with the kernel-devel package and it works. That makes me believe it's something in the kernel, as none of the other software is changed.
I followed some advice here to add -wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types and that failed differently. Maybe I should attach that output as a text file, as there's more to it, in case it is of interest. Thanks.
