Bug#369402: libc6-dev: inotify-syscalls.h is missing



Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.3.6-10
Severity: normal

The file inotify-syscalls.h
from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rml/inotify/headers/
is missing. This prevents its usage in applications, except for those
that right now have the habit to ship private copies, which is bad.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=179366 for a
similar case.
Either the file should be shipped with libc6-dev, or (I think this was
done upstream, not sure, but preferrable) the syscalls should be merged
into the bits/syscalls.h file.
