configure: error: checking for linux/version.h #3

Closed Montecito closed 7 years ago

Montecito commented 7 years ago

When I run the configure script I get the following error:

checking for linux/version.h... configure: error: cannot proceed without the required header file

As far as I know the linux/version.h file is deprecated and no longer available in my distro (Arch linux). I think the correct header file should be: generated/uapi/linux/version.h

Can you confirm that?

We search for the header in lots of places but haven't encountered generated/uapi.

We have ${kerneldir}/include/generated/uapi in our search path though. Our current search paths work for 2.6.18-4.10 kernels on our supported distributions.

The paths we search are listed just before the linux/version.h check - "kernel headers layout"

Montecito commented 7 years ago

You are right, this issue is unrelated to the project, i had some installation issues locally.

It's now working as expected.
