I believe that I have seen this problem addressed on c.o.l before but
I can't find the solution anymore.  While tring to compile emacs I get
the following errors:

/usr/include/linux/in.h:25: conflicting types for `IPPROTO_IP'
/usr/include/netinet/in.h:30: previous declaration of `IPPROTO_IP'
/usr/include/linux/in.h:26: conflicting types for `IPPROTO_ICMP'
/usr/include/netinet/in.h:31: previous declaration of `IPPROTO_ICMP'
/usr/include/linux/in.h:27: conflicting types for `IPPROTO_GGP'
/usr/include/netinet/in.h:32: previous declaration of `IPPROTO_GGP'
...
there are at least 5 more errors exactly the same.

However, I can't find any conflicts while looking at the files myself.
What gives?

Anyhow, I am using 0.99-10 and the 4.4 libs with gcc 2.3.3.

Thanks for your help.  

P.S. If this is a faq shouldn't the solution or patch be kept with the
new header files on the ftp sites?

Just make netinet/in.h a link to linux/in.h or change it to have
#include <linux/in.h>
and nothing else.

The fix hardly warrents a patch.

This is precisely what I had to do as well.  I'm glad to hear that it
was the right thing to do.  Is there anything else that should be
deleted / added?  This really should be in the README or FAQ.

Also, despite the fact that linux/kernel/chr_blk/serial.c tries to deal
with the COM4 / 8514 conflict problem, I still get a yellowish screen
from my ATI Ultra, which occaisonally flickers from white (correct) to
yellowish (yuck!).  Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix.

Hi !

The solution was already posted in c.o.l.
Anyway, once again:

The files in.h in /usr/include/netinet/ and in /usr/src/linux/include contain
the same enumerations.
What you have to do is to edit /usr/src/linux/include/in.h:

#ifndef _NETINET_IN_H

[enum follows]

#endif

Now it should work.
