Re: [gtk-list] Can't compile GLib in Mac OS X

["Serge Humphrey" <bobtheblueberry gmail com>]

When I add 'CPPFLAGS="-l/usr/local/include"' to the configure
arguments, so it is like './configure CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include
-L/usr/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-l/usr/local/include"
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"', it starts configuring and spits out the
following error message:
>>configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
>>See `config.log' for more details.
then terminates.
And then in config.log the problem seems to be occurring here:
>>configure:3253: gcc -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -l/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib conftest.c  >&5
>>/usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -l/usr/local/include
>>collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
