[LARTC] Compile error "iproute2"

[LARTC] Compile error "iproute2"

[Steffen Moser]

Hi,

I am trying to compile "iproute2" (iproute2-2.4.7-now-ss020116-try.tar.gz, 
inclusively the latest HTB patch, activated diffserv components) on a 
SuSE-Linux 8.2 system (using "gcc 3.3", system based on "glibc 2.3.2"). 

It is no problem as long as I use the kernel header files of linux-2.4.20
(vanilla), linux-2.4.20.SuSE (special kernel patched by SuSE, shipped
with SuSE 8.2) or linux-2.4.21 (vanilla).

As soon as I use the header files of "linux-2.4.22-rc2" (i.e.
"/usr/src/linux" links to "/usr/src/linux-2.4.22-rc2") the compile
process breaks up very shortly after staring:

 | steffen@pc01:~/tools/iproute2> make
 | 
 | make[1]: Entering directory `/home/steffen/tools/iproute2/lib'

 | make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/steffen/tools/iproute2/lib'
 | make: *** [all] Fehler 2
 | 
 | steffen@pc01:~/tools/iproute2>

Of course, I know that "linux-2.4.22-rc2" is just a release candidate
but no official stable version. However, I'm going to ask this question:

Has anyone encountered the same problem? Is there any patch to solve it?

Regards,
Steffen

I have a very similar problem with the same iproute2 and htb version, 
but with linux 2.4.22 vanilla, not rc2.

/usr/src/linux/include/linux/in.h:140: field `gr_group' has incomplete type
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/in.h:141: confused by earlier errors, 
bailing out
make[1]: *** [ll_map.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/iproute2/lib'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any idea about how to fix this??
Regards,
Matías.

Hello,

For example you can try patching iproute2:

vim include-glibc/netinet/in.h
.,$s/linux\/in.h/\/usr\/include\/linux\/in.h

I'm not that "in" those things, but it seems that some distros have
/usr/include/linux linked to the kernel source tree and others dont. I had a
similar situation recently, and I resolved it this way.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I've same problem like you.

My linux box is:
- kernel 2.4.22
- RH 7.2
- iproute2-2.4.7-now-ss010824

and the same problem appear with:
- iproute2-2.4.7-now-ss020116-try.tar

Since I need esfq, I will try with kernel 2.4.18

What do you mean with this ?

-> vim include-glibc/netinet/in.h
-> .,$s/linux\/in.h/\/usr\/include\/linux\/in.h

Regards.

Mac

 :

With this I meant to replace linux/in.h
with /usr/inclyde/linux/in.h.
