[Buildroot] Confused about kernel-headers.

[Randy Graham]

Hello,

I am using buildroot snapshot 2012.10 to build a linux-3.7-rc1 kernel for
an ARM board and see that the latest kernel-header selectable is 3.5.x (3.7
headers are not listed).

So, my questions are:

1. Why do I need to specify a kernel-headers version when the source
tarball for linux-3.7-rc1 already has it ?

2. How does buildroot use the specified kernel-headers version?

3. How do I go about adding the 3.7 headers if they must be used with my
3.7 kernel ?

I have googled, searched the buildroot source and mailing list but am still
confused.

Thanks for any insights.
