Regarding problem with the building aufs-util.

[Atul Singh Mandla]

Is it possible to compile the aufs-util without using "make headers
install"?
While I tried doing the same I got this error :
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-DUMOUNT_CMD=\"/bin/umount\" ver.c -o ver
ver.c:19:29: fatal error: linux/aufs_type.h: No such file or directory
#include <linux/aufs_type.h>
^
compilation terminated.
<builtin>: recipe for target 'ver' failed
make[2]: *** [ver] Error 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To resolve the same I added "CFLAGS="-I$(AUFS_DIR)/include/uapi/"" to the
make.
In this case I got a different error and I am not able to get to the root
cause of the same.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In file included from ver.c:19:0:

Can anyone help with this issue ?

I am afraid not.

By "make headers_install", the invalid keyworkd "__user" will be removed
and you will be able to succeed compiling.
