Hi, I am trying to build the alpha release of AST ksh on debian testing but the compilation fails because it cannot find header files under /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys.
Actually, if I create the symlink /usr/include/sys -> /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys the compilation succeeds. I have the same behavior (i.e compilation failure solved with the symlink) under debian wheezy and ubuntu 12.04. So I think ksh does not handle correctly the implementation of multiarch in debian. Am I right? If ksh source code does not handle multiarch correctly, which document should I ask upstream to look into in order to understand how multiarch is implemented in debian? I have the feeling the people on ast-developpers ml are not familiar with debian or ubuntu. Actually, they asked me if "my test machine was broken"; and "how could I have such a weird header files setup". I think to submit them a summary of https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/TheCaseForMultiarch for the reason of such a header files setup in debian/ubuntu and https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/LibraryPathOverview for the way their source code should handle it. Am I right this issue is related to multiarch in debian? Do you have any advices to make my point against the ksh developers? Thanks for any advices.
