Hello! I build lxc for android with you instruction, i get error on "./configure --host=arm-eabi --disable-api-docs --disable-lua --disable-python --disable-examples --prefix=/data/lxc/lxc --with-runtime-path=/cache/ --bindir="/data/lxc/bin" --libdir="/data/lxc/lib" --with-config-path=/data/lxc/containers/" command, error: "checking for linux/unistd.h... no
configure: error: Please install the Linux kernel headers.", but i install linux headers, but have error.
And 2 question:
If i finish build lxc binary, which options i need choose in android kernel, to start lxc.
Sorry for my English.

wget command doesnt work for my hikey 960 board which has android OS on it. Is there any other way to get things installed

it seems only API21 include if_link.h and some special function，& use other APIs can not complete build
