I tried to compile the following program
------------------------
#include <linux/if.h>
int main()
{
return(0);
}
--------------------------
This fails with the following errors:
--------------------------------------
In file included from iftest.c:1:
/usr/include/linux/if.h:136: error: field `ifru_addr' has incomplete type
/usr/include/linux/if.h:137: error: field `ifru_dstaddr' has incomplete type

/usr/include/linux/if.h:140: error: field `ifru_hwaddr' has incomplete type
---------------------------------------
I invoked the compiler with gcc iftest.c and expected it to report no errors,
but return quitely instead.
These are the version of packages, that might be connected to this problem.

I found this file by searching in /usr/include for "struct ifreq", since the
very very scanty documentation in
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt mentions this struct in a
codeexample.

Yes, you can close the bug. But I close it just now.
BTW, I plan to consider this kind of /usr/include/{net,scsi,...}
problem because those headers become depreciated.
