This is the same problem under any linux, in my experience. For some stupid reason, libffi thinks it's a good idea to put include headers in a directory with the version number, in /usr/lib. I don't think this should be added to fsbv in this hardcoded fashion, but should rather be determined at (or before) grovel time, or we should all e-mail the libffi people about why this is wrong. -Sumant On Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 03:01:33PM -0900, Joshua Holbrook wrote:

I don't know if this is the right place or not, but at any rate, the patch to the fsvb repository that was discussed on irc a week (or so) ago is attached. Basically, I just added the location of ffi.h for Fedora 12 to libffi-unix.lisp . Chances are it's not ready-for-prime-time since I'm not very good with lisp yet and have only really been able to test it on my machines, but hopefully it's useful.

Thanks,
