Hi,
     I've just done a dnf upgrade in F43 which has installed kernel 6.19.7. That install has installed kernel-devel-6.19.7-200 but has not installed the equivalent kernel-headers and a dnf info kernel-headers is telling the 6.19.7 version doesn't exist and the latest one is kernel- headers-6.19.6-200. Is the 6.19.7 kernel headers missing or do I have to enable source repositories?

The kernel headers package is only updated when something changes.  The point release of the kernel probably doesn't have any header changes.

Just a silly question on this, when compiling source code that is designed to use the kernel headers rather than the kernel devel, and that compile is for compatibility with the current kernel, how does the compile process know to use older headers if the headers for the current kernel don't exist, or is it that they always use a version insensitive symlink that always links to the most recent headers?

regards,
