Hi Sluggers: I am trying to install the "GD" module on my server.
I am encountering problems after running "make". The error I get is shown below +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ LD_RUN_PATH="/usr/lib:/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib" gcc -o blib/arch/auto/GD/GD.so -shared -L/usr/local/lib GD.o -L/usr/lib/X11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/local/lib -lgd -lpng -lz -lfreetype -ljpeg -lm -lX11 -lXpm /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lfreetype collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [blib/arch/auto/GD/GD.so] Error 1 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I noticed that when running "Perl Makefile.PL" it said the following: "NOTICE: This module requires libgd 1.8.4 or higher (shared library version 4.X)." How do I find out what version of "libgd" I have installed ? Is the error I am getting above related to the version of "libgd" ? In "Makefile.PL" I got it to avoid the switch "-lfreetype", but after that it complains about "-lX11" . Any suggestions are welcome to help me install this module successfully.
