Debian conflicts with FHS on /usr/include/{linux,asm}

[Brian Servis <servis@purdue.edu>]

Just curious how Debian is going to stand on the FHS requirements for
/usr/include kernel headers in section 6.1.5 of the FHS?  Is the
practice of including known good headers with libc6-dev going to
continue?  If so then the exception should be noted in the new policy
manual.


Quoting http://www.pathname.com/fhs/2.0/fhs-6.1.5.html,

6.1.5 /usr/include : Header files included by C programs

These symbolic links are required if a C or C++ compiler is installed. 


    /usr/include/asm -> /usr/src/linux/include/asm-<arch>
    /usr/include/linux -> /usr/src/linux/include/linux
