I recently did a "yum update" and it installed a new kernel:
2.6.12-1.1372_FC3. I like to build my own ipw2200 module, so I tried and
it failed. With a little investigation I found some broken links:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 47 Aug 25 15:45 build
-> ../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.12-1.1372_FC3-i686
drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Aug 25 15:45 kernel

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Aug 25 15:45 source -> build
"build" and "source" are broken links. I tried installing the .src.rpm and
did an rpmbuild, but to no avail. What am I missing?
This seems to be new for kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3. Before, all the headers
needed to build modules were included in the rpm, the src rpm wasn't
needed, nor was anything else.
Thanks.
