[gdal-dev] GDAL/OGR 2.0.2 RC2 Available for Review

[Even Rouault]

Hi Sandro,

Thanks for the report. I've just added ${CFLAGS}. See 
https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/6330

I've pushed the fix in the branch but will not re-issue a RC just for that 
reason as the problem has likely existed forever. You could also use
--with-freexl=/path/to/install/prefix as a likely workaround, or add 
-I/usr/local/include in CC itself.

Regards,

Even
