Looking in the problem further, I realized that I was wrong. linux-headers-3.16-0-4-686-pae package actually provides ata.h, although it's location is unconventional somewhat. Specifically, /usr/src/linux-headers-3.16.0-4-686-pae/include/config/ata.h So, it's no wonder that scons is unable to locate the needed header. Not is was *that* big problem for building kernel module, but I don't recall any *userspace* program that requires that part of kernel headers (and that's clearly userspace one as they don't write kernel in C++). And, the good news are - there's no need for this old packages trickery. The bad news being - you'll need to convince scons to look the header there. Personally I'd say 'screw it' and patch the source with the following diff: -#include -#include "/usr/src/linux-headers-3.16.0-4-686-pae/include/config/ata.h" Reco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Is it possible to install older linux-headers on Debian 8
One quick question: If ata.h is missing from latest package then which file is replacement for it? May be i need to ask this on libc-help mailing list but asking if anyone knows about it.

Since co-installing different versions of linux-libc-dev is not possible in current stable Debian (jessie), you have the following options: 1) Use debootstap to make a chroot of older Debian version (presumably, squeeze or older, as wheezy's linux-libc-dev does not have linux/ata.h). 2) Try to install an old linux-libc-dev (presumably, from squeeze), possibly breaking your current installation beyond repair.

Is it possible to install older linux-headers on Debian 8
Hi all, I have one build system which is legacy and i am just compiling the older code on new debian 8 machine. Its a scons build and when i started the build, i got following error. scons: done reading SConscript files. scons: Building targets ... scons: building associated BuildDir targets: OUTPUT/ C++ OUTPUT/MyCppFile.o SOURCE/MyCppFile.cpp:35:23: fatal error: linux/ata.h: No such file or directory #include ^ compilation terminated. scons: *** [OUTPUT/MyCppFile.o] Error 1 scons: building terminated because of errors. Makefile:116: recipe for target 'test' failed make: *** [test] Error 2 I searched on internet but no clue. I have linux-headers installed and here is output: $ dpkg -l | grep linux-headers ii linux-headers-3.16.0-4-686-pae 3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1 i386 Header files for Linux 3.16.0-4-686-pae ii linux-headers-3.16.0-4-common 3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1 i386 Common header files for Linux 3.16.0-4 Can someone help in this? Thanks, Dhiraj
