Question [MSYS2/GCC-TDM] Compiler not finding headers in /usr/local/include
I hope it's okay to post this here. I'm working on Windows computer but using the Unix-like environment MSYS2 (https://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2).

My problem is that I can't get the compiler to find headers located in /usr/local/include. I am trying to compile libpng which wants the header "zlib.h":
Code:
$ ../configure --disable-static LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" CXXLAGS="-I/usr/local/include"
...
...
...
checking for zlibVersion in -lz... yes
...
...
...

$ make
rm -f pnglibconf.c pnglibconf.tf[45]
gawk -f ../scripts/options.awk out=pnglibconf.tf4 version=search\
    ../pngconf.h ../scripts/pnglibconf.dfa\
    ../pngusr.dfa  1>&2
gawk -f ../scripts/options.awk out=pnglibconf.tf5 pnglibconf.tf4 1>&2
rm pnglibconf.tf4
mv pnglibconf.tf5 pnglibconf.c
rm -f pnglibconf.out pnglibconf.tf[12]
test -d scripts || mkdir scripts || test -d scripts
gcc -E -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. \
     -DPNGLIB_LIBNAME='PNG16_0' -DPNGLIB_VERSION='1.6.16' -DSYMBOL_PREFIX='' -DPNG_NO_USE_READ_MACROS -DPNG_BUILDING_SYMBOL_TABLE  pnglibconf.c > pnglibconf.tf1
pnglibconf.c:33:19: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory
 # include <zlib.h>
                   ^
compilation terminated.
Makefile:2143: recipe for target 'pnglibconf.out' failed
make: *** [pnglibconf.out] Error 1

$ ls /usr/local/include | grep zlib
zlib.h

I have no clue why it's not finding it.

[code]$ whereis ld
ld: /mingw64tdm/bin/ld.exe

$ ld --verbose | grep SEARCH
SEARCH_DIR("/mingw64tdm/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/mingw64tdm/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/usr/local/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib");[/code]

Anyone have any ideas?

--- Edit ---

Sorry, that part about the linker was not necessary.

--- Edit ---

Ugh! I was using the wrong variable. "CXXFLAGS" should have been "CPPFLAGS".

dh_python

DH_PYTHON(1)							     Debhelper							      DH_PYTHON(1)

NAME

       dh_python - calculates Python dependencies and adds postinst and prerm Python scripts (deprecated)

SYNOPSIS

       dh_python [debhelperoptions] [-n] [-V version] [moduledirs...]

DESCRIPTION

       Note: This program is deprecated. You should use dh_pysupport or dh_pycentral instead. This program will do nothing if debian/pycompat or a
       Python-Version control file field exists.

       dh_python is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating the ${python:Depends} substitutions and adding them to substvars files.
       It will also add a postinst and a prerm script if required.

       The program will look at Python scripts and modules in your package, and will use this information to generate a dependency on python, with
       the current major version, or on pythonX.Y if your scripts or modules need a specific python version. The dependency will be substituted
       into your package's control file wherever you place the token ${python:Depends}.

       If some modules need to be byte-compiled at install time, appropriate postinst and prerm scripts will be generated. If already byte-
       compiled modules are found, they are removed.

       If you use this program, your package should build-depend on python.

OPTIONS

       module dirs
	   If your package installs Python modules in non-standard directories, you can make dh_python check those directories by passing their
	   names on the command line. By default, it will check /usr/lib/site-python, /usr/lib/$PACKAGE, /usr/share/$PACKAGE,
	   /usr/lib/games/$PACKAGE, /usr/share/games/$PACKAGE and /usr/lib/python?.?/site-packages.

	   Note: only /usr/lib/site-python, /usr/lib/python?.?/site-packages and the extra names on the command line are searched for binary (.so)
	   modules.

       -V version
	   If the .py files your package ships are meant to be used by a specific pythonX.Y version, you can use this option to specify the
	   desired version, such as 2.3. Do not use if you ship modules in /usr/lib/site-python.

       -n, --noscripts
	   Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
