make sure you have that dir included as to where to look for include
files within your gcc/g++ compile line. something like -I./ or -I./src
or even better, specify the true location such as
-I/usr/src/rox-{%version}/src

if the make process then finds the missing .h file, it will continue
where it left-off.
