Re: Environment Variable to Customize .INCLUDE_DIRS

[Afif Elghraoui]

Based on Paul Smith's comment in #47880 [1], there's a pretty simple 
solution to this problem. Adding something like the following to 
~/.bashrc would do the trick:


MAKELIBS="$HOME/.local/include /other/include"
for path in $MAKELIBS
do
    MAKEFLAGS+="-I$path"
done
export MAKEFLAGS
