[OpenAFS-devel] LINUX: ./configure fails if /usr/src/linux/include isnt found!

[Rajesh Duggal]

./configure assumes the linux system has headers under
/usr/src/linux and fails if it doesnt.

But kernel source and headers shouldn't be in there anyways..
please see..
http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue62/tag/4.html

I was able to get around this with
./configure --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr
on my debian install.

However, other users might be tempted to make a sym link
from /usr/src/linux to their linux sources.. a very very bad
idea that could lead to a whole host of problems down the
road when upgrading the kernel.

Can someone modify the ./configure script to not try
looking in /usr/src/linux for kernel headers.

Thanks,
Rajesh.
