When I try to compile branch workstation-17.0.1 with Kernel 6.4.10 I get:

I'm sorry but this is getting extremely annyoing. This issue has been already reported five times and has been fixed for six days. Does noone really bother to check existing reports and check if the issue still actually exists?

Hello @mkubecek,

my apologize. I did pull the latest version before checking. What am I missing?

cparg commented 1 year ago

sorry for bothering... something didn't work with the git pull before. It is fixed now, in deed!

I had to manually go and change the file in the referenced commit, wondering why my freshly initialized repository, which I had also pulled just in case, was not functioning properly.
