This can cause problems for newer packages (such as connman) that expect more recent headers (if_alg.h is missing prior to 2.6.39). While the proper fix is to ensure these packages can cope with older headers, for MACHINES shipping 3.0+ kernels, seems to me we should be using the linux-libc-headers matching the kernels. I know this has come up in the past, but I don't recall if we have clearly stated and justified what our policy is here. Any thoughts on this? -- Darren Hart Intel Open Source Technology Center Yocto Project - Linux Kernel
