[Solved] extramodules-3.6-ARCH/version: No such file

When I try to install anything from the AUR:

Aur Targets    (1): broadcom-wl

Proceed with installation? [Y/n] 
cat: /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/version: No such file or directory
cat: /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/version: No such file or directory
cat: /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/version: No such file or directory
==> ERROR: An unknown error has occurred. Exiting...

uname -a

Linux arch 3.7.1-2-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Dec 20 17:57:00 CET 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I tried creating that file and putting the uname output in it but that gave other errors...

Installing with what? Pasting partial errors really does no-one any favours...

Have you tried installing from the AUR manually to narrow down the issue?

Ring any bells?

If you have not restarted your system after kernel upgrade, do so ASAP.
If you have, check PKGBUILD for broadcom-wl and adjust it for kernel you currently have, which would be 3.7-ARCH.

Updating the PKGBUILD let makepkg finish successfully. Thanks!
