Also, it doesn't build for me: $ make 50%] Building C object CMakeFiles/lstypec.dir/lstypec.c.o 100%] Linking C executable lstypec usr/bin/ld: /home/gregkh/tmp/libtypec/bin/liblibtypec.a(libtypec.c.o):(.bss+0x0): multiple definition of `__packed'; CMakeFiles/lstypec.dir/lstypec.c.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here usr/bin/ld: /home/gregkh/tmp/libtypec/bin/liblibtypec.a(libtypec_sysfs_ops.c.o):(.bss+0x0): multiple definition of `__packed'; CMakeFiles/lstypec.dir/lstypec.c.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here ollect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status ake[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/lstypec.dir/build.make:98: lstypec] Error 1 ake[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:839: CMakeFiles/lstypec.dir/all] Error 2 ake: *** [Makefile:121: all] Error 2 Why does this need to be a library at all? thanks, greg k-h
