HI
Follow all the instructions of openfoam and related experience of others, and I have reached here, don;t know how to handle.
I find very strange while compiling openfoam with the following errors:

As an attempt, you can go in Paraview3.3-cvs/platforms/[your_platform] and run "ccmake .". In the configuration window, toggle advanced mode on pressing "t" and look for CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS and CMAKE_C_FLAGS and modify them by adding: "-I/path/to/ThirdParty/gcc-4.3.1/platforms/yourplatform/include" or wherever your include directory containing missing headers is.
Then, press "c" to configure and "g" to generate and exit. Go back to ThirdParty directory and run buildParaView3.3-cvs with any argument, to avoid reconfiguring (for example, "buildParaView3.3-cvs 1").
If you are lucky enough, this could resolve your problem...

Hi Iding,
now depends on your operating system. You have to install a package for developing graphical application. Something like x11-....-devel.
I'm on a Mac, now, and I cannot check a Linux installation.

Hope this helps, even if it's not so much...

Hi lding,

This should contain the right packages (at least on Fedora, in Ubuntu just grab anything with X11-..-devel via Synaptic):

yum groupinstall "X Software Development"
