I need to install the linux-header-*
package for other kernel versions in order to compile a kernel module locally for a different system.
Say, I want to compile for Debian 10, with a kernel version of 4.19.0-13-amd64, using Ubuntu 20.10, with a kernel version of 5.8.0-43-generic.
In that case, is it possible to install the neccessary linux-headers-4.19.0-13-amd64
package from the Ubuntu 20.10 machine?
In particular, apt-cache search linux-headers-.*
only show 5.8.0-*
versions on Ubuntu 20.10.
If not possible to download the necessary kernel headers using apt-get
, where can these be obtained? I don't want the complete Linux source, just the headers required for compiling the kernel module.
linux-headers-*
), or is only the complete source available? In case only the complete source is available, ca nthe relevant kernel headers easily be extracted to form thelinux-headers-*
-equivalent?
