Just curious, but I was wondering: If linux26-headers is being used |
| 18 |
rather than linux-headers, should virtual/os-headers be changed to |
| 19 |
linux26-headers? |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
The reason I am asking is because some things that depend on |
| 22 |
virtual/os-headers, now want to install linux-headers... |
