Description Sapan Bhatia 2004-04-15 01:21:16 UTC 
doing an emerge on development-sources-2.x.x does not sync kernel headers, which are required to compile several build time scripts in the /usr/src/linux/scripts directory.
Comment 1 Jason Cox (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-16 11:01:44 UTC 
Which scripts won't compile? They should be using the in kernel headers regardless though.
Comment 2 Jason Cox (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-28 15:12:36 UTC 
Technically, the kernel doesn't depened on the kernel-headers to install and build. I've yet to see a kernel script that didn't compile.
