All,
I tried (thru YAST2) to replace glibc-devel (CD ROM)- didn't help
(By the way, /usr/include/sys/wait.h files etc exist)
I sftp'ed another package,which compiled OK on the old working 8.0 install
computer -"UPS" to
the new computer.
This failed to compile in much the same way on the new computer, i.e. could
not
"find" ANSI header files and <sys/wait.h> files that are in the directory.
So I have a broken install somehow, so
I tried (thru YAST2) to replace every installed package (DVD) - didn't help.
This implied to me that some configuration file contents are screwing up the
configure file
generation, so I re-installed everything over again - this time from a
reformated harddisk partition.
Insight compiles correctly now.
After all of these iterations, much like the movie "Lola rennt", I have a
happy ending.
Thanks again,
Bob Nee

The headers are part of glibc-devel. And the error show that some
files are missing. I propose to reinstall glibc-devel.
