When I add 'CPPFLAGS="-l/usr/local/include"' to the configure arguments, so it is like './configure CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-l/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"', it starts configuring and spits out the following error message: >>configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables >>See `config.log' for more details. then terminates. And then in config.log the problem seems to be occurring here: >>configure:3253: gcc -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -l/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib conftest.c >&5 >>/usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -l/usr/local/include >>collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Bob.
