I'm building maildrop 2.0.2 from source on a FreeBSD 6.0 installation and configure is failing to locate pcre.h.

Pcre was already installed when I installed PHP but I dutifully downloaded pcre 6.6 and re-built and installed it without issue. I can actually see pcre.h in /usr/local/include but the configure script just keeps failing. Anyone got any clues?

Try using the ports instead of manual building.

a quick and dirty fix is to symlink pcre.h in /usr/include. you can remove it after building maildrop and courier-imap.
