And my (external) dvipng is compiled with jpeg. My Sage's gd is not linked
to jpeg, but the system gd is.
Sorry, like I said, I was just guessing. Did you try running dvipng from
within the sage shell? This is what I get:
{{{
gantu ~ $ dvipng foo.dvi
This is dvipng 1.14 Copyright 2002-2010 Jan-Ake Larsson
[1]
gantu ~ $ sage -sh
Starting subshell with Sage environment variables set. Don't forget
to exit when you are done. Beware:
* Do not do anything with other copies of Sage on your system.
* Do not use this for installing Sage packages using "sage -i" or for
running "make" at Sage's root directory. These should be done
outside the Sage shell.
Bypassing shell configuration files...
Note: SAGE_ROOT=/home/mjo/src/sage-5.10.rc2
(sage-sh) mjo@gantu:~$ dvipng foo.dvi
dvipng: symbol lookup error: dvipng: undefined symbol:

(sage-sh) mjo@gantu:~$
}}}
> We can not expect to package latex with Sage. Latex packages are
''huge''! We are better off asking the user to install them externally,
especially since they are not an essential component of Sage.
There's a GSOC project that will hopefully go a long ways towards fixing
the build system, but if you're going to decide to ship all of sage's
dependencies, you've really got to ship all of them. Otherwise certain
parts of the program will break, apparently at random.
