Is there a file where I can specify the location of my header files??(like that of ld.so.hints)

[Mark Jayson Alvarez]

Hi,
I think I did something horrible with my machine. I
cannot complete a "make" anywhere in ports. For
example, I'm compiling iperf and got this error.

headers.h:82:19: errno.h: No such file or directory
headers.h:139:24: syslog.h: No such file or directory

I used find to search for these files and I did find
it.

#find / -name errno.h -print
/usr/include/sys/errno.h
/usr/include/sys/syslog.h

Whenever I'm compiling a c program, I learned that I
can pass a -I<directory> to the gcc, but I don't know
how to do it in ports. Is there a file where in I can
specify where my include files can be found, like that
of the ld-elf.so.hints and ld.so.hints that contains
the directory where my libraries can be found?

Hmm, please test whether you can compile the following C program:

#include <stdio.h>

int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
printf ("Hello, Mark!\n");
return 0;
}

Then compile it using: gcc -c hello.c

If it doesn't compile, something happened to your C compiler since
/usr/include should be searched automatically (i.e. without -I) by gcc.

If so, have a look at /etc/make.conf and also /etc/defaults/make.conf
(the latter one should not be modified!)
