Makefile GD lib problem on Centos 4 (aka RHES4)

[Luke Johnson]

Thanks Arno,

In order...

-I have all the library files, I believe, which the devel packages 
provide.  Those were the bits I included showing the libpng.so, etc are 
the actual libraries in their respective paths, and the Yum snippets.  
I'm pretty dang sure I have libpng/libjpeg/libgd.

As a second note, the ./configure spits out:

checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 1)... no
checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 2)... no
checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 3)... no
checking for gdImagePng in -lgd (order 4)... no

... but Ifind this...

[root at chilkat nagios-2.0b3]# grep gdImagePng /usr/include/gd.h
BGD_DECLARE(void) gdImagePng (gdImagePtr im, FILE * out);
BGD_DECLARE(void) gdImagePngCtx (gdImagePtr im, gdIOCtx * out);
BGD_DECLARE(void) gdImagePngEx (gdImagePtr im, FILE * out, int level);
BGD_DECLARE(void) gdImagePngCtxEx (gdImagePtr im, gdIOCtx * out, int level);
BGD_DECLARE(void) gdImagePngToSink (gdImagePtr im, gdSinkPtr out);
BGD_DECLARE(void *) gdImagePngPtr (gdImagePtr im, int *size);
BGD_DECLARE(void *) gdImagePngPtrEx (gdImagePtr im, int *size, int level);

[root at chilkat nagios-2.0b3]# grep gdImagePng /usr/lib/libgd.so.2
Binary file /usr/lib/libgd.so.2 matches

[root at chilkat nagios-2.0b3]#

-I have used the /lib64, /lib, and no paths (in which case Make should 
fall back to /etc/ld.so.conf file which has both the prior paths).

-As for Perl, nope, missed those notes.  Hmm, I'll go look for them, 
wonder what the preferred method is?  Might make for an interesting 
second topic (embedded=possible memory leaks, mod_perl2='developmental' 
with Apache2, external perl='slower').

Thanks again,
LJ
