Even though cc has a million options, there's none that I know that prints the system include path (not even in -dumpspecs). However, in practice you can assume it's /usr/include. To make configure scripts believe you have something installed, it's not a good idea to copy headers. Look for a --with-iconv=/usr/local option and failing that, change CFLAGS and LDFLAGS in the environment when configuring. -- Mel Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules and never get to the software part. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
