[vbox-dev] virtualbox 5.0.22 fails to build on Ubuntu yakkety

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Hi, as said the latest vbox failed to build probably due to a new kernelor glibc(Sorry l didn't debug a lot the issue but l think this is due to some of the vbox defines, please ask if you want a better patch)https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/5.0.22-dfsg-1


This is a snip of the failure

The include in that kernel header file is something likeIf not defined __kernel__Include fooEndif
So, I guess somewhere you are defining it because including the header in that specific cpp file "fixed" the failure

Sorry for typos, I'm on mobile and I'm going with memory and copy-pasting stuff(I'm unsure about __kernel__ or __KERNEL__ case sensitiveness but I remember grepping for it in vbox source code and there were a lot of cflags adding it :-) )
Just in case, MIT is the license (even if there is no patch here)
Thanks
