Result: FAIL
Failed 1/4 test programs. 0/0 subtests failed.So, eventually I got this
to work with Linux::Inotify2 1.01 and
make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255
DROLSKY/File-ChangeNotify-0.07.tar.gz
/usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
Note that dependency Linux::Inotify2's Inotify.xs also would not compile
initially as it wanted to include '/usr/include/sys/inotify.h' which I
found in '/usr/include/linux/inotify.h'.
So, eventually I got this to work with Linux::Inotify2 1.01 and by
installing Debian package libinotifytools0-dev, then reinstalling your
module via CPAN.
So...figured you'd like to know it took some doing.
