I’m trying to install the ReSpeaker kernel module on my Raspberry Pi running OSMC. I have already worked around a known problem with OSMC’s kernel headers, but now I can’t get the installation script to work. It bails out pretty fast because it can’t recognize that OSMC’s kernel headers (in the rbp2-headers-4.19.122-1-osmc package) are installed:

Error: Install kernel or header failed
I tried to hack up the script to disable this check (since of course I’ve confirmed that the headers are installed properly myself) but I ran into more errors - can’t remember the details unfortunately since it was a while ago. Can someone from Seeed (or who understands how the install.sh script works) test on OSMC and fix the script so that it works?
