Try the attached patch. Ubuntu doesn't use gamin and I haven't noticed the problems you are experiencing with respect to files not showing up, but it is a good idea to enable this feature nevertheless.
Thanks Tim!
I see that I was close but still have much to learn. :)
The package now builds. I'll report in the bugzilla my testing results.
BTW, I think this is an example of why we should keep the automake files in the GIT tree even after converting to cmake, at least for a few more Trinity releases. Those files provide us a historical record. In this case, I was able to study the automake files to offer a feeble attempt at a patch. The historical automake files provided me clues that the missing FAM support might be part of the original bug. So let's keep those files for a while. :)
+1 on keeping autotool files
Does the current cmake files allow for make dist?
There is no processing from VCS to tarballs like autoreconf when cmake is used, so git-archive should be enough.
If not then please keep the autotool files so source tarballs can be made from the git repos.
maybe, Doing make dist from in the git repo to get a tarball almost always results in something usable and scriptable ;)
