Re: [mpls-linux-general] Re: make errors: iproute-2.6.9-3mpls1_946

[James R. L. <jl...@mi...>]

The include files are the most difficult part of compiling any of
the MPLS linux userland utilities.  What I have started doing in my develop=
ment
tree is I utilize the include directory right inside the iproute2 and iptab=
les
directories.  If you look at the include/linux directory for iproute2 you w=
ill
see it has most of the files you need (excect for mpls.h and gen_stat.h).
So what I recomend is to point the iproute2 Makefile at it's own include
directory and copy mpls.h, gen_stats.h, and rtnetlink.h into
iproute2/include/linux and see if that works, it works with the newer
iproute2 which is in my dev tree (BTW if you try compiling iproute2-mpls-1.1
in my dev tree, don't modify the Makefile, it should compile just fine
as it is)
