Why? This package is already prepared for external modules build.
Do you have any evidence that you *need* it? As I already wrote, this is not needed to manually compile vmware modules.
there are some reasons why i keep doing this: * i also recompile my wifi-driver wl.ko for my broadcom wifi card (hybrid-v35_64-nodebug-pcoem-6_30_223_271)
I briefly tested this one from Broadcom site using 4.8.6 TW kernel-default-devel and it happily starts to build without any prior magic incantations. It fails, but that is unrelated and known issue (IEEE80211_BAND_2G e.g. is missing) - see e.g. https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:X0F:HSF:Kernel/broadcom-wl.... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
