so I'm trying to compile hostapd on Fedora. When I run make it spits out a ton of errors.
Here's my kernel version:
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 #1 SMP Tue Nov 18
12:19:59 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
And here's the output when I try and run make (this is only the tail end of it believe it or not, there's so many errors it fills the bash history, I can't even get back to the start of the errors if I scroll all the way up):

None of that appears to have logged any information of use. You need to get the log right before it starts dumping out those messages. That is the part that will tell you what the problem is.

That's impossible, I just ran yum -y install libnl and was told it was up to date.
I think the .config file I created is not pointing in the right place (a directory in /usr/src) but I have no clue where libnl actually is and thus can't point make in the right direction.
