I have actually found a bug in the way the headers are copied, they are
tracked by sorcery and removed by prepare_install.
SO unfortunately , during a second glibc cast or a sorcery rebuild, if glibc
make install tries to verify that the target (from make) is uptodate it will
fail because the headers are no longer there.
One solution to this would be to use
- --with-headers=/lib/modules$(uname -r)/build/include
which is technically the same as /usr/include/{asm,asm-generic,linux} being a
symlink from /usr/src/linux/include/*
I think this is the correct method ?
Another method is to not track the headers, by moving the cp to POST_INSTALL,
but I don't like that one much.
