[PlanetCCRMA] Kernel sources

[Noel Bush]

You want the kernel-source rpm, not the kernel srpm.

To see a list of what's available:

# apt-get install kernel-source
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package kernel-source is a virtual package provided by:
  kernel-source#2.4.23-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma 2.4.23-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma
  kernel-source#2.4.23-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma 2.4.23-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma
  kernel-source#2.4.22-9.23rc3.ll.rhfc1.ccrma
2.4.22-9.23rc3.ll.rhfc1.ccrma

 [...etc.]

You should explicitly select one to install.
E: Package kernel-source has no installation candidate

Then choose the one you want:

[root at vasya noel]# apt-get install kernel-source#2.4.23-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma

Building Dependency Tree... Done

  [...etc.]
