But whech checking for headers, CPPFLAGS seem to be the one we are interested in. With a recent version of pkg-config, one would do: SAVE_CPPFLAGS=$CPPFLAGS SAVE_CFLAGS=$CFLAGS CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS `$PKG_CONFIG --cflags-only-I`" CFLAGS="$CFLAGS `$PKG_CONFIG --cflags-only-other`" AC_CHECK_HEADERS([gts.h]) CPPFLAGS=$SAVE_CPPFLAGS CFLAGS=$SAVE_CFLAGS But I'm afraid that gts-config does not support all these options, so you might try: SAVE_CPPFLAGS=$CPPFLAGS CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS `gts-config --cflags-only-I || gts-config --cflags`" AC_CHECK_HEADERS([gts.h]) CPPFLAGS=$SAVE_CPPFLAGS HTH, Stepan _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
