Re: FVWM: Error loading PNG on Solaris

This is still confusing me. I even checked my Makefile and the path to
my png.h seems correct.

png_CFLAGS = -I/lsi/vp/spiderman/user/bsferraz/bin/libpng-1.2.5/include
png_LIBS = -lpng -lz

Yet after I make everything I get that warning that fvwm-root was
compiled with png.h from libpng-1.0.1. Could some other system path,
such as /usr/local/include, be overriding my local path? How could I
force it to find the png.h of 1.2.5 from my local directory?

thanks,
Ben
