Re: Search for an header file in different paths

I see.

But gdal have a nice executable called gdal-config, similar to pkg-config:
user@host ~ $ gdal-config --cflags
-I/usr/include/gdal
user@host ~ $ gdal-config --libs
-L/usr/lib -lgdal1.7.0

Is there a way to use it like I do with PKG_CHECK_MODULES?

In this way I could avoid the user to insert anything on configure command line, because gdal-config will give the right path on every system...

Before upgrading my Ubuntu linux to 11.10 version, I had gdal.h under

Now I have it under /usr/include/gdal and I get that gdal.h cannot be
found (in my source files there is a simple "#include <gdal.h>").

<path>/configure CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/gdal

How can I manage the two cases in the same configure.ac: system in which
gdal.h is in /usr/include and others in which it is in /usr/local/include?

c.f. above. Leave passing include-paths to your users. Only he knows (rsp. he is supposed to know) where a package's headers are installed.

A package's author can't know where his package's users may have installed the package's headers into.
