kernel-headers location
Does anyone know the kernel-headers location, or how to determine that location, in Fedora 13? I'm installing vmware-tools and it's prompting for it. /usr/include/ and /usr/include/linux/ were revealed to have many header files, as shown by doing
rpm -ql kernel-headers
however the installer rejected these locations. My only guess as to why is because they're not where the currently-running kernel has them. Any guesses? I also tried /usr/src/kernels/(kernelversion).fc13.i686/include/ with no luck...

No, I used yum: sudo yum install kernel-devel. kernel-devel is definitely installed and updated, yum tells me. I now understand that yum and rpm have different databases. I looked on the yum man page for some command that was similar to that rpm command that I used, but couldn't find one. Is there a way to do this with yum?
