compile node.js 6.3 failed in Linux 2.6.9

[Odin Liu]

Hi, all

Our productive environment is Linux with Kernel 2.6.9. When I tried to
compile node.js 6.3, it reported "src/unix/linux.c:30:25: sys/
inotify.h: No such file or directory". I found that inotify is a new
library since kernel 2.6.13, so it cannot be found in 2.6.9.

So I wonder if there is a way to make node.js 6.3(or higher) work with
linux 2.6.9?

Yes. Upgrade the bundled libuv to commit d808cf9[1] or newer.

Not unless you will be using the web application in MSIE6. :-)

Thanks very much. It works.
