In my version version of diald, .98.2, diald.h includes both files; the
linux version if GLIBC is defined, the inet version otherwise.
It is hardly wise to delete or move directories to avoid this problem
unless you know what you are doing. The problem usually gets worse.
To create a link to the linux include directory
cd /usr/include; rm linux; ln -s /usr/src/linux/include linux
There should be two or three other such links into the kernel source.
less /usr/src/linux/README
Gcc normally knows to get header files from /usr/include
unless it has been configured otherwise. You should not have to give it
that information, but you can add
-I/usr/include
to the CFLAGS line of the Makefile as a temporary fix.
BTW, we are talking about header files, not libraries. Header files
contain declarations and other pieces of information necessary for the
compiler to do it's job. Libraries contain object code (for the
declared functions and variables) which the linker links to your object
files (once you get it to compile). They are quite different creatures.
If you are still having trouble, post the offending lines from the
compiler and tell us what system you are running and which version of
diald you are using.
