Yes, I should have used CPPFLAGS to set the include directory. Thanks for pointing out. However it still bothers me that rpmbuild takes the environment's CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS instead of forcing its own. Since Koji normally uses: CFLAGS='-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions ... CXXFLAGS='-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions .. FFLAGS='-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions ... would it not be better if rpmbuild used the same values and ignored the user's environment? If a package, indeed, needed some custom value for CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and FFLAGS, I believe that can be done through the spec file itself and the user's environment setting would not be required. What do you think?
