Description Didier LINK 2004-03-14 21:05:39 UTC 
I've download the latest GStreamer and gst-plugins (0.7.6) and try to
compile it with the latest stable (2.6.4) kernel and I can't because of
this errors :

 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../gst-libs -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -pthread -I/usr/include/gstreamer-0.8

make: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/g/gst-plugins-0.7.6/sys'

I've searching in the sources (sys/vcd/vcdsrc.[ch]) and not found the
problem (just a duplication of inclusion of the <linux/cdrom.h> header in
this source files).

I use gcc-3.3.1, make 3.80 ...

Any idea ??

Thank's for atention

Define "with the latest kernel".  /usr/include/linux and
/usr/include/asm have nothing to do with the kernel you are running.

What distro are you running?
Comment 2 Didier LINK 2004-03-18 19:37:07 UTC 
So, I'm not really a novice in Linux, I've made a LFS ;)))))

I use Linux kernel 2.6.4 and the headers in /usr/include are the
headers of the 2.6.4

regards.

Comment 3 David Schleef 2004-03-18 20:02:36 UTC 
In that case, you should know that the headers from the kernel are not
useful as user-space header files, and are never supposed to be copied
verbatim to /usr/include.  We don't support this, because it's just
not possible.
