Anyway to point to a directory where it contains the header/library files

[just.srad]

Hi, I am trying to compile the darwin ports, it prompts an error of missing md5.h. i search for it and it resides in /usr/include/sys. So i copy it to /usr/include.

After which, the compiler complains of a missing fetch.h. This time, fetch.h is located in another directory, and i need to copy it to /usr/include.

Then i try to compile it again, this time round, it complains of another missing header file.

So i am wondering is there a way, to link the compiler to all the header files?
Or did i miss out something , like a step to be done before i can compile the darwin pkg successfully without any error ?

Thanks in advance and much appreciate for any kind of assistance.

I don't think I had to compile darwin ports when I installed it. Anyways, there could have been steps for setting up the path variable so that it looks in extra locations.

What are you wanting to be able to do with Darwin Ports? There might be an alternative like MacPorts or Darwine, or Fink.

Manage to install Macport.. from http://guide.macports.org. With the instruction given i am able to use it..

Not sure from there i can find minicom... trying now.
