kernel compilation error: redefinition error in skbuff.h

[EmanueleS]

Hi!
I'm trying to install the latest GRSecurity on a freshly installed Debian machine.
I get this error recompiling the kernel with GRSecurity:

Code: Select all

make[1]: *** [init/do_mounts.o] Error 1

Does anyone have some idea about how to fix this problem?

This is not an error in any published version of grsecurity I'm aware of. Either you're using a very outdated patch or improperly merged some outside changes. Please don't post these kinds of logs while omitting which kernel version/patch was used as it just wastes my time looking for a problem that doesn't exist.
