Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 6.16.8+kali-amd64 cannot be found at /lib/modules/6.16.8+kali-amd64/build or /lib/modules/6.16.8+kali-amd64/source.
Please install the linux-headers-6.16.8+kali-amd64 package or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located.
The error tells you what you need on this one. You don't have the kernel
headers package installed. IIRC, Kali is Debian-based, so try:
sudo apt install linux-headers-6.16.8+kali-amd64
then run the build again.
