Try this: export CPATH=$CPATH:/usr/kde/3.3/include/ ...before you start make. If you're lucky, the Makefile will append its values to this and it will find the header, if not, you'll have to hack the Makefile. Basically, if you have additional directories holding header files that you want gcc to use, you have to specify then using the -I switch. If you invoked gcc directly, that'd be something like: gcc -I/usr/kde/3.3/ include program.c -o program ...but since you're not invoking it directly (and let Makefile handle this for you), you'll probably have to hack the Makefile to make make make properly :) Better still would be to run ./configure with an option that will include this directory. Do ./configure --help, and it will give you a list of options you can use. I'm too lazy to check it now, but IIRC the option to include another include dir ;) would be something like --include-dir=/usr/ kde/3.3/include Another possibility would be to symlink the kde include directory to a place that's being searched for the headers anyway, like this: ln -s / usr/kde/3.3/include/kparts /usr/include/kparts ...but I wouldn't recommend that, since it's messy. Use only if everything else fails (and remove the symlink afterwards). And to wrap it up: please don't top-post. Write your comments directly after the quoted text you're referring to (this is called inline- posting), and also quote as little text as possible. Trim all text that is not relevant to your post - there's no need to send everything, including yahoo ads, to and fro - keep it concise.
