I'm not able to build entr on AIX.
The make ends in error:

make: *** [Makefile:29: entr] Error 1

Then I expanded -> CPPFLAGS += -DRELEASE="${RELEASE}" -I missing

and make ends in error:
"entr.c", line 24.10: 1506-296 (S) #include file <err.h> not found.
"entr.c", line 129.18: 1506-045 (S) Undeclared identifier warnx.

make: *** [Makefile:29: entr] Error 1

I am on AIX 7.2 and gcc version 8.3.0 (GCC).

As far as I know AIX doesn't support file system event notification. I'm sure it doesn't support kqueue. Is /usr/include/sys/inotify.h part of the install?

Thanks for the advice, I will look for her alternatine for entr.
