Hi @warrenrentlytics, thanks for posting this issue. We try to add this port and find some problems in source:

  1. libfswatch_config.h are not found in source.
  2. This port only supports Linux.
  3. Without build documentation.
  4. Some macro such as PACKAGE_STRING PACKAGE_NAME PACKAGE_BUGREPORT PACKAGE PACKAGE_URL are not found.
  5. It seems like that the port has code bug in source. eg: optarg and getopt not found. Considering the above problems in source, we won't add this port to the vcpkg list currently till these problems are solved.
