I'm developing a plugin that requires use of the encryption library functions in <gcrypt.h> - this file is included in several of the epan dissectors. I can successfully build Wireshark 1.2.8 and 1.3.5 and my plugin without <gcrypt.h> included in the plugin source code. However, when I include <gcrypt.h> in the plugin source code the compiler can't locate it so I guess its a plugin makefile issue. 
Has any one encountered this issue before and suggest how to resolve it?


Are you on *NIX or Windows?
On *NIX if your gcrypt.h is not someplace obvious (like /usr/include/) you probably need to add something like: 

INCLUDES = -I$(srcdir)/../.. -I$(srcdir)/.. \
        $(LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS) $(LIBGCRYPT_CFLAGS)
to your plugin's Makefile.am . (The above example is from epan/dissectors/Makefile.am .) 

I suppose Windows may have something similar.
