#36110 [NEW]: ./configure fails when checking for gd, gdImageCreate

From: ifette at gmail dot com Operating system: Linux 2.6.14-gentoo-r2 #2 SMP PR PHP version: 6CVS-2006-01-20 (CVS) PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure Bug description: ./configure fails when checking for gd, gdImageCreate Description: ------------ When trying to run ./configure, configure fails when checking for the presence of libgd. checking for gdImageCreate in -lgd... no configure: error: GD build test failed. Please check the config.log for details. (I only get this error when using --with-gd=/usr. If I use the built-in gd, it compiles). The problem appears to be the code that the configure script is using: It tries to execute: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wl,-rpath, -L conftest.c -lgd -lcurl -lbz2 -lz -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl -lm -licui18n -licuuc -licudata -lm -licuio -lxml2 -lz -lm -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lcurl -lidn -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lz -lxml2 -lz -lm -lgd 1>&5 The -L there is causing a huge problem. The failure is /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6/../../../crt1.o: In function `_start': init.c:(.text+0x18): undefined reference to `main' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status If the -L is removed (or a path is added after -L), then everything compiles fine.
