Has anyone else seen this? I merrily upgraded from 5.5.4 to 5.5.5 (VMwareWorkstation-5.5.5-56455) - and when trying to run the config script, I get this? Prior to everything seems to occur just peachy. Installed from the RPM,all ran w/o errors.
I'm running Fedora Core 7, with a custom compiled kernel, 2.6.23-1.
uname -a
Linux wanderer 2.6.23.1 #1 SMP Mon Oct 15 14:37:48 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I get the same error if I "roll back" to 5.5.4.
Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel?
