Not really, I admit.

Yes, this is correct. I have done it myself a few times and it worked.
But you also want to install the target files in various places, what I
didn't do myself.

One more question, how did you install i2c before installing lm_sensors?
Is your Epia kernel i2c-patched, or did you install i2c separetely? This
changes the place where lm_sensors has to look for headers, maybe this
is a part of the problem you have.
