Description erik falor 2007-08-04 12:03:21 UTC

elfkickers relies on linux header files that do not exist outside of /usr/src/linux/include.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. see that your system is using sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.21
2. re-emerge elfkickers
3.

Actual Results:  
Compilation fails on a few of the elfkickers, including rebind.  

Expected Results:  
All files should have been compiled and installed.

I was able to work around this bug by copying the following missing headers to /usr/include:

cp /usr/src/linux/include/linux/elf.h /usr/include/linux
cp /usr/src/linux/include/asm/elf.h /usr/include/asm
cp /usr/src/linux/include/asm/user.h /usr/include/asm
cp /usr/src/linux/include/asm/page.h /usr/include/asm

I'm building for x86-64
