My apologies for the 'kernel' component if its wrong. The only kernel-headers package I could find listed was arm-kernel-headers, and I'm fairly certain that's wrong. In the absence of other kernel-header packages, I used the vanilla 'kernel' component. kernel-headers doesn't install to /usr/src/. It installs to /usr/include/. You can see this by running `rpm -ql kernel-headers`. It is a system-wide package used for building other things (like glibc/gcc) against the userspace sanitized headers exported by the Linux kernel buildsystem. You may be looking for the kernel-devel package instead. |
Description of problem: The kernel-headers package does not install the kernel headers. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.18.5-201.fc21.x86_64 How reproducible: Always (at least for this particular issue) sudo yum install kernel-headers-`uname -r` Actual results: sudo yum install kernel-headers-`uname -r` Package kernel-headers-3.18.5-201.fc21.x86_64 already installed and latest version But: $ ls /usr/src/ debug kernels $ ls /usr/src/kernels/ $ Expected results: I expected kernel headers to be located at /usr/src/kernels/ Additional info: VMware install
