Well spotted. We probably should add something like this
as a syntax check:
{ sed -n '/^\/lib\/.*\.h$/{p;p}' .gitignore;
find lib -name '*.in*' ! -name '*~' ! -name 'sys_*' |
sed 's|^|/|; s|_\(.*in\.h\)|/\1|; s/\.in//'; } |
sort | uniq -u
Which currently suggests adding these to .gitignore:
/lib/arpa/inet.h
/lib/errno.h
/lib/float.h
/lib/fnmatch.h
/lib/netinet/in.h
/lib/pthread.h
/lib/sched.h
/lib/se-context.h
/lib/se-selinux.h
/lib/stdarg.h
/lib/stdbool.h
/lib/stddef.h
/lib/stdint.h
cheers,
Pádraig.
