Slight lie. The internal one is called local_inotify.h. It appears that they used to try to include the system header, but it was causing problems. Here's a snip from inotify-helper.c: /* Just include the local header to stop all the pain */ #include "local_inotify.h" #if 0 #ifdef HAVE_SYS_INOTIFY_H /* We don't actually include the libc header, because there has been * problems with libc versions that was built without inotify support. * Instead we use the local version. */ #include "local_inotify.h" #elif defined (HAVE_LINUX_INOTIFY_H) #include <linux/inotify.h> #endif #endif -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
