/////////////now manually check the gcc include folders listed above for libconfig.h/////////////////////

[root@localhost include]# ls
aio.h        err.h           inttypes.h  neteconet   rpc            tar.h
aliases.h    errno.h         langinfo.h  netinet     rpcsvc         termio.h
alloca.h     error.h         lastlog.h   netipx      sched.h        termios.h



if it is not available then

for centos :

# yum install libconfig 

# yum install libconfig-devel

[root@localhost include]# yum install libconfig-devel

Now check the folder again for    libconfig.h
