Qt v4.2.3 on ubuntu

[Alain Muls]

Hi,

I have problems compiling QT v4.2.3 (idem dito for v4.2.1) on feisty fawn and 
on dapper drake. I always get the error:

So there is somewhere a problem with the location of a inotify.h file. When I 
do a apt-file find inotify.h and install all relevant packages, the error 
remains.

How to resolve this error?
