Hi. I'm trying to use CentOS4.2 for some audio work (ie. sound editing, etc.). I found a site called PlanetCCRMA (http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/) and decided that I would give some of their applications a try (hoping that it would not affect my system greatly!).
At first I tried the Fedora 3 packages (and they do work), but what I really wanted to do is to download the source packages and rebuild them for my system. I was able to successfully build their custom kernel-2.6.10-2.1.ll for my system but they have one available (kernel-2.6.13) that would run my system a little more efficiently (which I need because my system is a Pentium III and I just can't afford a new system just yet).
Any how, I tried to compile the source rpm only to encounter an error to the effect of:
./include/linux/kernel.h:10:20: stdarg.h: No such file or directory
Is there something wrong that I can't compile this kernel?
P.S. I've also tried compiling other kernel versions that they have such as 2.6.11 and 2.6.12 (with exactly the same error message). I "googled" the problem and found that it might have to do with gcc (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=1732038). Can anyone help me compiling new kernel? I've posted full error message below. Thanks!
Sincerely Jose
