Why fix the header and then revert it back? Other FAM packages (e.g. KDE) will probably have the same compliation error. If the fix is technically correct, just fix it during fam. > Looking for better suggestions (helpful ones, not suggestions to use > programs that GNOME doesn't use by default). The package I mentioned, gamin is a fully compatible replacement to fam and from a GNOME developer. AFAIK, no changes are required to any package to make it use gamin instead of fam. Check out <http://www.gnome.org/~veillard/gamin/differences.html>: does not need run a daemon as root and also has support for inotify. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
