Anything under /usr/local is not part of the 'base system'. You can even change the default installation path of the ports from /usr/local to /opt or /pkg. The ports should still work. Since the system compiler can not have any reliable way of determing if it's /usr/local or some other path that it should automagically search for includes, it doesn't attempt to provide a "hack for a solution". > was this always the case for FreeBSD? if so what's the logic? > im asking because solaris/bsdi/linux all have /usr/local/include in > the cpp path. You have to manually specify -I/usr/local/include and -L/usr/local/lib when you build programs. - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
