Error building source

[Jeffery Joltes]

I do not have root permission so I am trying to build tmux from source. I
built libevent from source and set the configure flags to specify a custom
location.

configure succeeds but I'm getting the following compiler error

In file included from arguments.c:26:
tmux.h:27:19: error: event.h: No such file or directory
In file included from arguments.c:26:
tmux.h:894: error: field ‘changes_timer’ has incomplete type
tmux.h:929: error: field ‘name_timer’ has incomplete type
tmux.h:1205: error: field ‘key_timer’ has incomplete type
tmux.h:1257: error: field ‘event’ has incomplete type
tmux.h:1279: error: field ‘repeat_timer’ has incomplete type
tmux.h:1307: error: field ‘identify_timer’ has incomplete type
tmux.h:1310: error: field ‘message_timer’ has incomplete type
make: *** [arguments.o] Error 1


At first glance it looks as if it can't find the event_struct, but I've got
the feeling there is more to this issue than that.

Running in CentOS version 6.6


Any help would be very much appreciated!

What exact command line do you use to configure?

Thanks for your response Nicholas,

Well I am confused as to how to include the paths for libevent properly. On
one hand event.h seems to be referencing /event2/visibility.h --> which
would indicate that the main include path should be as follows

LIBEVENT_CFLAGS=-I/[path-to-home]/usr/include/libevent/

Note, I have symlinks between this directory and the include directory
delivered with the libevent source

And on the other hand tmux.h is referencing event.h and event_struct.h as
if the include path should be included like this

LIBEVENT_CFLAGS=I/[path-to-home]/usr/include/libevent/event2

is there a specific libevent version that is organized differently?

Also, I have symlinks directly to each of the libevent library files,
allowing for

LIBEVENT_LIBS=-L[path-to-home]/usr/lib/libevent


Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Jeff
