#include <sys/tree.h> is missing on FreeBSD

Which version of FreeBSD are you using? sys/tree.h has been imported into source tree in 2002

Anyway I have created a pull request #31 with bundled sys/tree.h so you can try that code now

10.1
The file tree.h isn't missing, include is missing. I added this to quick-fix the build:

@echo "#include <sys/tree.h>" >> ${WRKSRC}/config.h

Are you trying to compile libinotify out of FreeBSD port system through hacking of port`s Makefile? If so it would be a wrong way. You should run full autotools suite than configure than resulting Makefile rather than just run ports bundled Makefile

[yurivict]

Free port already bypasses autotools. I was updating it to the latest version, and found that this include is missing. It was added for some other OSes, but not FreeBSD in code.

[wulf7]

The code evolved since port version. It now requires autotools

[wulf7]

Run autogen.sh && configure && make in ${WRKSRC} directory and dont run make on port bundled Makefile

[yurivict]

Port doesn't use autogen.sh the way how it is defined. autogen.sh would require perl, and will take literally 20 times longer to build. So it avoids this. In any case, there is no action required. Thanks.
