This was noted in the bugzilla. The 3.7.x kernels have only a stub version.h in inlude/linux/version.h and it needs to disappear (it is blank). The real version is elsewhere in the tree and gets found ok after moving or deleting the include/linux/version.h file and the builds work fine. -- G.Wolfe Woodbury fedora proventesters: redwolfe _______________________________________________ vbox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://www.virtualbox.org/mailman/listinfo/vbox-dev
