ntfs-3g/ntfssecaudit build failed with fatal error: linux/fd.h: No such file or directory
Hello, I downloaded ntfs-3g_ntfsprogs-2022.10.3.tgz from tuxera, extract it and run, in my cygwin 3.5 environment: ./configure make ntfsprogs I got a "fatal error: linux/fd.h: No such file or directory". All ntfsprogs are build in ~/ntfsprogs but not ntfsrecover, ntfssecaudit and ntfsusermap. So do you have any hint where I can find this "linux/fd.h" ? Thanks in advance Matthias -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Check your config and make logs for questionable defaults or automatic selections. You may want to first try just `make`, to ensure that all subdirectory configs are done properly, as those are often run by the top level make, using the cached results from configure. -- Take care.

But, anyway, nothing speaks aginst just sticking to the current code. It works and probably continues to work...
