This time, try this command line and tell me if it works to compile xmms. You have to do it to all the Makefiles in xmms. $ cp Makefile Makefile.bak; cat Makefile.bak | sed -e s%-I/usr/include%%g - > Makefile After you have gotten all the makefiles, then try to compile it. If this works, then you have an extraneous file in /usr/include that you need to get rid of.
