I was working on a program that needs to read/write XDR format files, and I came across a system include file that was wrong. In "/usr/include/rpc/rpc.h" it says around line 15 that it wants to include <netinet/in.h>.. which as the compiler will complain about, DOES NOT EXIST.. at least at that path name.. the path of the include file that it wants is actually "/usr/include/bsd/netinet/in.h".. two possible simple fixes.. make a sybolic link to /usr/include/bsd/netinet in /usr/include, or go in and change <netinet/in.h> to <bsd/netinet/in.h>. I think that the first fix is probably more reasonable.. Hope this is fixed for the next release..

I forgot to mention that this is on the Personal Iris.

This extends the search path for include files to the bsd subtree. Try 'man 3 intro' for more information. It is the last page that comes up.

We have a demo Personal Iris on loan here until our very own comes in. We did not however get the full set of manuals with the PI. All we have are the two graphics manuals for now.
