It actually is a bad way of doing things, |
| 20 |
the headers in /usr/include should always keep the same you did compile the important librarys like glibc to. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
if you replace this headers and there actually is a change in them you have to re-compile everything that uses that part, |
| 23 |
which would be glibc, Xlibs, ..., ... |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
so its just usual to keep the header version there u used to compile glibc. |
