Hi,

I'm having problems using gd in Inline::C...
This works

#include <stdio.h>
#include "gd.h"

int main(void)
{ gdImagePtr im;
  FILE *out;
  im = gdImageCreate(100,100);
  out = fopen("foo.jpg", "wb");
  gdImageJpeg(im, out,-1);
  fclose(out);
  gdImageDestroy(im);
  return 1;
}

but this does not :(

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Inline Config => FORCE_BUILD => 1,
                     CLEAN_AFTER_BUILD => 0;

use Inline C => Config => LIBS => '-L/usr/lib -lgd';
#I tried variations of the above line
use Inline C => Config => AUTO_INCLUDE  => '#include "gd.h"';
#Apparently can't use #include "gd.h" in the code itself
#Some say I can but it generates a bootstrap error here...
use Inline C => 'DATA';

outtext();

__END__
__C__

int outtext()
{ gdImagePtr im;
  FILE *out;
  im = gdImageCreate(100,100);
  out = fopen("foo.jpg", "wb");
  gdImageJpeg(im, out,-1);
  fclose(out);
  gdImageDestroy(im);
  return 1;
}


It is returning the following error
perl: relocation error: /path/_Inline/lib/auto/gdexample_pl_2120/gdexample_pl_2120.so: 
undefined symbol: gdImageCreate

I played with the Config params, checked gcc version, checked to see if libjpeg was 
installed or if libgd was installed...
It appears -lgd doesnt end up in the Makefile.pl and Makefile. 
I tested simple Inline::C tests and they work on my system.

Is there a known cure for this? :)

BTW I'm using Perl 5.6.1, Inline 0.43, RH7.2, gcc is gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red 
Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98).

TIA
