If he had read 'his' mailing list he would have noticed that there were
two patches dealing with the case that header files from
/usr/include/machine/ have moved to /usr/include/sys/. I even copied
the patch to the mailing list an obviously he somehow _does_ monitor
this list. As he simply decided to ignore the respective hints I don't
think my words were too harsh.
There is a comment in the file that needs the patch:
#ifdef SL_USING_OSS_AUDIO
# if defined(UL_LINUX)
# include <linux/soundcard.h>
# include <sys/ioctl.h>
# elif defined(__FreeBSD__)
# include <machine/soundcard.h>
# else
/*
Tom thinks this file may be <sys/soundcard.h> under some
unixen - but that isn't where the OSS manuals say it
should be.
If you ever find out the truth, please email me:
Steve Baker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
*/
# include <soundcard.h>
# endif
#endif
We should email him if we find out, but he simply decides not to
listen. This is what annoys me.
Well, for FlightGear you can circumvent this single case by configuring
'--disable-sl' (because luckily FlightGear uses OpenAL) but as PLIB
folks claim to support FreeBSD in general I think they should take at
least a little bit of care if they are already being presented the
patches,
Martin.
