Again, I get this: those symlinks are a very bad thing, lame redhat insists on doing it despite orders from Linus to stop... i guess that redhat just has to be broken, oh well. if you removed the links you need to put the files back that you must have removed in the first place. those files belong to libc6-dev, so perhaps you need to reinstall that package: apt-get --purge remove libc6-dev && apt-get install libc6-dev > In file included from /usr/include/errno.h:36 > from scripts/split-include.c:26 > /usr/include/bits/errno.h:25: linux/errno.h: No such file or directory > make:***[scripts/split-include/ Error 1 try reinstalling libc6-dev and see what happens then. > So that's the deal. > > Thanks for your patience > > Josh. > -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
