Hi!
I'm running into issues building the NI-VISA drivers on Ubuntu 22.04 with kernel 6.8 after system update. The error occurs when building nikal packages and propagates to all packages that depend on it.
I am posting the make.log from dkms below:
Making nikal.ko
warning: the compiler differs from the one used to build the kernel
The kernel was built by: x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc-12 (Ubuntu 12.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 12.3.0
You are using: gcc-12 (Ubuntu 12.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 12.3.0

Could I ask you for help in solving this problem?
In the case of the nikal package, I have often faced various types of problems while building it. The most common one was related to the stdbool.h source file.
