First, please send plain text. We don’t need screenshots or Word documents when simply copying&pasting the error message will do.

Concerning your issues, it seems you are trying to install packages of some kind. Nowhere in the LITMUS^RT documentation does it say that  we provide packaging guidelines. I, for one, never use the package manager to organize LITMUS^RT kernels. I just install them directly.

Also, why does it say Linux 3.10.41? The latest release of LITMUS^RT is based on Linux 4.1; the in-progress version is based on Linux 4.9. You should not be using older versions. 

In general, LITMUS^RT is a Linux kernel modification, so some experience working with custom Linux kernels is required. We cannot possibly provide a complete tutorial on everything related to managing Linux kernels. The focus of this mailing list is LITMUS^RT  specifically, not Linux kernel problems in general. As I said in prior emails, you should first become comfortable how to compile & install custom kernels before attempting to add the LITMUS^RT patch.
