inotify support

Hi,

I'm trying to compile some software that uses inotify (mpd 0.16), but during ./configure it says:

checking for inotify_init... no
checking for inotify_init1... no

Is there no inotify support in the bubba kernel?
This is my uname -a output:

Linux witlof 2.6.26.5 #3 Thu Aug 6 14:46:56 CEST 2009 ppc GNU/Linux

Any clues would be appreciated :)

Hi,

I haven't tried this, but I suspect you need to install some development package (header files, libraries and stuff).

A quick search among available packages reveals there is one named libinotifytools0-dev that might do the trick.

Try (as root)

Code: Select all

aptitude install libinotifytools0-dev
to install package, then run configure again.
