Check the makefile to see if there is a variable you can add to
include that path.
Otherwise, man make and check the script that makes the plugin, e.g.
you will want to add:

make -I /usr/include/nspr4

Another option (may be easier)

export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/nspr4:$C_INCLUDE_PATH
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/nspr4:$CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH

Then re-try the make.

Problem compiling sample plugin
 

Hi

Thanks for the answer, now it works fine; I had to add this to the Makefile:

INCLUDE_FLAGS=-I/usr/include/nspr4 -I/usr/include/mozldap
CFLAGS = $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) -fPIC

But, IMHO, shouldn'd slapi-plugin.h make referende to
"nspr4/prtypes.h" instead of "prtypes.h" and "mozldap/ldap.h" instead
of "ldap.h"?

Regards.
