[NMLUG] Mandriva 2007 shortcoming

[sbrowne at ix.netcom.com (Steve Browne)]

Yes, I found one. If you are going to use Mandriva 2007 Powerpack (and
I would assume the download version is similar), Mandriva provides
only a "kernel-source-stripped" rpm, meaning it is stripped of the C+
compiler and *.c header files. My guess is that this is so you can't
compile your own sources but instead rely on Mandriva's pre-built
rpms. Simple enough to fix by downloading the full kernel-source from
elsewhere.
