Currently evaluating SEPL but showstopper in that cannot install on Ubunut 14.04 running a 3.16 kernel.
Previous 3.13 kernel versions work fine.
Yes, I know, people will point out what versions are supported etc or building yourself. So, I've tried that.
Standard install.sh -i throws the following:
...
Pre-compiled Auto-Protect kernel modules are not loaded yet, need compile them from source code
Build Auto-Protect kernel modules from source code failed with error: 1
...
# /opt/Symantec/symantec_antivirus/sav info -a
Malfunctioning
So off I go to build manually, which throws the following error:
# ./build.sh --kernel-dir /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)

Has anybody got any (re)solution before I trot off to support to be told, unsupported kernel version, in which case, Symantec miss out on a sale ?
Thanks
