SeaMonkey 2.25 compiled successfully in Slacko but in Dpup Wheezy 3.5.2.11 I got the following error. Does anyone know what it means and how to fix it?
Code:
include/nss -I/initrd/mnt/dev_save/seamonkey-source/comm-release/objdir-sm-release/mozilla/dist/private/nss -Impi -Iecl  sha_fast.c

Thought it might be a good idea to document this because I did some research and found a solution or at least a workaround. I was trying to compile Firefox in Wheezy and was getting the same error.

The errors say that those 2 names do not have a "type" defined.
The names are in the header file /usr/include/linux/sysinfo.h
That file also calls an include of the header file /usr/include/linux/types.h
So in order to add types to those 2 names, add the following code to types.h
Code:
#ifndef __kernel_long_t
typedef long     __kernel_long_t;
typedef unsigned long   __kernel_ulong_t;
#endif
