How can I check wether the headers are really missing, i.e. where should I look for them?

/usr/X11/include/X11 (/usr/X11R6 is a symlink to /usr/X11 BTW). Do you have x11prefix set to /usr/X11 (or /usr/X11R6) in /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf ? - Harald

Hi,

I'm having lots of problems when compiling various packages with macports, and they all come down to one issue: the X11 development headers seem to be missing.

I'm running 10.5.4 (upgraded from 10.5.2) with first Apple's X11 installed, then later upgraded to Xquartz 2.3.1rc1. I also have Xcode 3.1 installed (upgraded from 3.0). This should be enough for everything to work, right?

How can I check wether the headers are really missing, i.e. where should I look for them?
