Cool.. so the patch would be:
---------------
369c369
< CPPFLAGS=$save_CPPFLAGS])
---
> CPPFLAGS="$save_CPPFLAGS -I$ctl_h_path"])
---------------
Seems to be working. That should allow a clean rpm build.
Thanks,
Jimmy

Hello again, Jimmy,
I tried to check the file configure.ac and the configure script works
changing the line
CPPFLAGS=$save_CPPFLAGS])
to
CPPFLAGS="$save_CPPFLAGS -I$ctl_h_path"])
Then regenerate the configure script with autoreconf.
Can you try this? It worked for me...

Hi Jimmy,
I've been reading the part of the configure.ac file responsible for checking
the location
of the ctl.h header file. It is the following piece of code:
# check for ctl.h (Fedora puts it in /usr/include/ctl, grrr)
CTL_H_CPPFLAG=""
AC_CHECK_HEADER(ctl.h, [CTL_H_CPPFLAG=" "], [
save_CPPFLAGS=$CPPFLAGS
AC_MSG_CHECKING([for alternate ctl.h location])
for ctl_h_path in /usr/include/ctl /usr/local/include/ctl; do
CPPFLAGS="$save_CPPFLAGS -I$ctl_h_path"
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE(AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[#include<ctl.h>]],[]),
[CTL_H_CPPFLAG=-I$ctl_h_path; break])
done
AC_MSG_RESULT([$CTL_H_CPPFLAG])
CPPFLAGS=$save_CPPFLAGS])
if test "x$CTL_H_CPPFLAG" = "x"; then
AC_MSG_ERROR([Couldn't find the ctl.h header file for libctl.])
fi
AC_SUBST(CTL_H_CPPFLAG)
Seems that the authors of meep did consider the issue in the configure.ac file.
Perhaps this
doesn't work with recent versions of Fedora ... You can also try to regenerate
the "configure" file with autoreconf:
autoreconf --force --install
- runs aclocal, autoconf, autoheader and automake in the right order to create
config.h.in, Makefile.in, configure and a number of auxiliary files (*)
Kind regards,
Rafael

Thanks Rafael,
sym linking these files in "/usr/include" allows it to build under Fedora:
ctlgeom.h -> ctl/ctlgeom.h
ctlgeom-types.h -> ctl/ctlgeom-types.h
ctl.h -> ctl/ctl.h
However, that sort of thing isn't going to work on more formal Fedora
build systems like "mock".
The Meep_release_notes have "Check for ctl.h in /usr/include/ctl/ctl.h
(default in Fedora)" listed from "Meep 0.20". Perhaps that old fix isn't
working anymore ??
Thanks,
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy:
I think there is a problem with the location of ctl.h . You can
try first to copy only ctl.h to /usr/include. You will need superuser
privileges to do that.
If your configure program suceeds, then there is an issue with the
location of ctl include files. In my installation (Gentoo ) all the
include libctl files are located at /usr/include. You can try to move
them as well.
Hope it helps!

Hi Folks,
I'm attempting to create a rpm for my Fedora/Scientific Linux users who
want meep. There seems to be some sort of problem detecting ctl.h from
the configure script.
I've posted the configure command and partial config.log here:
http://pastebin.com/u6diBTZJ
Looking through the list archives, I did see someone mention "pinning"
libctl under Ubuntu but I didn't find any more details.
Thanks,
Jimmy
