I have installed a package libstree on my machine (x86_64/Redhat Linux).

Have followed the instructions ( ./configure --prefix=/usr; make check; make install) to install the package.

Have checked that the relevant header files are in the /usr/include and /usr/lib directories.

However when I try to compile a test program I get an error message:

test.c:6:25: fatal error: lst_structs.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

lst_structs.h is present in the /usr/include/stree directory.

Anyone have any thoughts as to why the GNU C compiler cannot locate the header file?

    Are you including the file with #include <stree/lst_structs.h> or #include <lst_structs.h>? Commented Oct 20, 2011 at 15:17

As it's in an /include sub-directory, you need to explicitly mention it (see comments above), or adjust your lib include path, as outlined on this old stackoverflow post: How to add a default include path for gcc in linux?
