Hi,
I'm trying to rebuild the kernel specifically on Centos7 from src.rpm but some packages are missing or too old. I managed to get them and compile on Centos8 though. Any advice?
# yumdownloader --source kernel.src
# rpm -ivh ./kernel-4.18.0-348.20.1.el7.src.rpm
# rpmbuild -bb --target=`uname -m` ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel.spec
Building target platforms: x86_64

error: Failed build dependencies:
