I'm
building amarok 3.5.13. I
receive this message:
Looking for linux/inotify.h - not found
The header file does exist at
/usr/include/linux.inotify.h.
Any ideas for the message?
Darrell
Most distros use sys/inotify.h instead (glibc builtin
IIRC). I would
consider the incomplete inotify checks in Amarok a bug and
update them
from the tdelibs inotify checks I recently added.
Fortunately nothing complicated was needed. I changed linux/inotify.h to sys/inotify.h and
the cmake scripts then found the header file. I don't know why the scripts could not
find linux/inotify.h.
Here is the patch, unless you want me to submit through bugzilla:
