You erased and symlinked /usr/include/linux on your own.I did no such thing. As I've explained before, I DON'T USE A DISTRIBUTION.
What you said before was only "I don't run a distribution kernel...". Most of us do not run a distribution kernel. And as for "I don't use a distribution" - I don't think I understand what do you mean by that. LFS?
Apparently you haven't even looked into anPerhaps I'm a bit behind the times, but my argument is still valid. The kernel developers aren't hearing about bugs (and I'm talking about gross compile errors here, not nitpicky stuff about
URL I (and other people) pointed you to :(
structures and unions) because the distributors are fixing them on their own and not bothering to tell the kernel guys. The <sys/pci.h>/
If you at least made a quick glance at an URL, you'll probably notice that it was the quote from Linus, and he himself doesn't want people to ever include the kernel headers and don't want glibc maintainers to symlink the /usr/include/linux to /usr/src because that no longer work and not going to work ever again. Now you say distributors are not bothering to tell the kernel guys? Sigh... Please RTFM.
<linux/pci.h> thing was fixed months ago...but the bug is still there in kernel 2.6.6.
Kernel headers are fine. Their only purpose is to compile with the kernel, and for that they suit very well. If someone thinks he can include the kernel headers everywhere, ignoring whatever comes with the glibc, it is another problem. If the same person doesn't even bother to read the documents that were pointed to him, that's also a completely different problem.
Now, let's get off this topic and talk about dosemu, ok?
Right, such a discussion leads us nowhere. Go ahead an fill the bug report for kernel as you intended to do before. The best thing you'll hear is "don't include the kernel headers into your program", but since that makes no sense to you, go ahead and try. Maybe that will even work, who knows...
