Undefined symbol: ___inet_addr - corrected but why?

[Michael Richard <richar01_(_at_)_gel_(_dot_)_ulaval_(_dot_)_ca>]

Hi again!

I resolved my problem by editing /usr/include/arpa/inet.h and changing

#define inet_addr	__inet_addr

for

#define inet_addr	inet_addr

and did the same thing for all other definitions.  It worked but I don't really understand why.  I mean, is this ok to do this?

Thanx!

Michael
