Actually, you do have a point there. I forgot about 2.6.18 because I've been working with 2.6.19-rcX where the Makefile dependencies aren't as broken. My apologies. Nevertheless, my original point about not omitting "headers_install" still stands. > I'm really not trying to argue the point, whichever way is ultimately > best is fine with me, I just want to be sure I understand how > 'headers_check' is intended to be used. IMHO the problem is "make headers_install" and "make headers_check" are a bit rough around the edges in 2.6.18. Situation is somewhat better in 2.6.19-rcX but it seems there are other issues to contend with there (for a later discussion).
