[SOLVED] Info of linux-api-headers
Hi
I found that this package is needed as dependency for other pacakges.
By default, I use linux-lts, but there is no linux-lts-api-headers? Does linux-api-headers is for both kernels?
Thankyou

If the userspace API changes between linux-lts and linux and another package were to depend on such a change that is only in linux but not linux-lts that would be an issue.

linux-api-headers are the headers for the toolchain (gcc, binutils, glibc), not for building kernel modules.
