I get several errors once I try to include these two libraries:

error: expected unqualified-id before '{' token
#define DEBUG_PRINTLN(...)

#include <DHT.h>
#include <DGS.h>

void setup() 


void loop() 

Apparently DEBUG_PRINTLN is causing the problems, because it is defined as a private function in DGS.h and as a constant (#define) in DHT.h.

Including DGS.h before DHT.h does not throw errors. But is this a safe workaround or might I run into errors later? How can I deal with that, without modifying the libraries?

DGS.h:

The DEBUG_ functions in the DGS class are private and used only in DGS.cpp. They will not collide with the macros from DHT.h

If DHT.h is included before DGS.h, the preprocessor replaces the DEBUG_ function names with the content of the macros from DHT.h and the result doesn't make sense for the compiler.

You could do #undef DEBUG_PRINT and #undef DEBUG_PRINTLN after DHT.h to undefine the macros for the rest of the sketch. DHT.cpp includes DHT.h and will have the macros defined.
