[vbox-dev] Configure error: kmk (variable KBUILDDIR) not found

[Federico Franzoni]

Hi Frank,

Thanks for answering (and sorry for the in-thread question, I thought 
changing the subject was enough :-).

The command you suggest outputs:  "kBuild version 0.1.999 (r2504)".

Also it shows the values KBUILD_PATH and KBUILD_BIN_PATH.
I tried to set these variables and export them but nothing changed.

Regards,

Federico
