I was stuck in the same issue a while ago but got the solution.
You may have installed mosquitto by sudo apt-get install mosquitto so the mosquitto libraries were not installed by default.
You need to install libmosquitto by sudo apt-get install libmosquitto-dev and then include the path as /usr/include in the config.mk (in MOSQUITTO_SRC=) file of auth-plugin as 'mosquitto.h' file is there.
In the end go to the auth-plugin directory and then first run make clean and finally make to compile the plugin.

Didn't check this for
mosquitto, but usually the-devpackage has the header files (and other stuff necessary for compiling), while the libraries are installed as part of the other packages. At least this is the case for all Debian packages I've used so far.dirkt– dirkt2019-03-25 12:12:16 +00:00Commented Mar 25, 2019 at 12:12
