It's difficult to tell in advance which kernel headers are necessary and which are not. And we can't include all headers because of namespace collision with GNU ones, this is why kfreebsd-kernel-headers has a hardcoded list (where nfs headers can be added). -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
