    Possibly your system requires kernel headers to build modules. You can google on that.

    I'm fairly certain I have this solved. I scanned the log files and found several error messages about incorrect data types being passed between functions. I found the functions and structures used by the Parallels Tools installer scripts and C source files. There are two in particular, a function and a data structure, that have been deprecated/changed in the 5.7.0 kernel. I think it is these changes that are keeping the installer from completing.

    I'll keep updating here...
