Subject: if_bridge.h:183:20: error: field 'ip6' has incomplete type
Date: Sun, 23 Jun 2013 02:09:22 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <op.wy3rxwht9ey1ta@localhost> (raw)

hello there,
i got the errors below when building brigde-utils-1.5.
adding "in6.h" to "if_bridge.h" apparently solve them;
but i would be happy if someone can advise me to build
bridge-utils and the correct fix for these issues.

thanks,
