You should not want to make -I/opt/local/include disappear. It is where the headers of dependencies are installed, so it is needed. If it is causing problems, it is likely because your project's build system does not place the include flags in the correct order. The correct order is (relative) project include paths first, (absolute) dependency include paths second. If you cannot fix the build system to do that, you can use your sed trick to replace -I/opt/local/include with -isystem/opt/local/include which will have the same effect. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
