/lib/cpp fails due to missing kernel includes!!!

[Auke Kok]

PLEASE READ:

SYMPTOM:
> configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check

REASON:
the sole reason is that the kernel includes are not available. In lunar
we tend to keep the kernel includes in /usr/src/linux/include, and there
are appropriate symlinks in /usr/include/linux that point there.


CAUSE:
if the chain of symlinks to the right include dir is broken, cpp cannot
even include the basic set of includes, and therefore will break
completely.

FIX:
untar your kernel sources in /usr/src/ and symlink the correct kernel
version directory to /usr/src/linux (or lin linux to do it
automatically).

greetz,

sofar
