Thanks. Build gd-2.0.1 with these two lines in your GD2 Makefile: CFLAGS=-g -DHAVE_LIBPNG -DHAVE_LIBJPEG -DHAVE_LIBFREETYPE LIBS=libgd.a -lpng -lz -ljpeg -lfreetype -lm Don't install the lib anywhere, just leave them in the gd-2.0.1 directory. Then build PHP using: --with-gd=/home/<your_dir>/gd-2.0.1 --with-freetype-dir=/usr --enable-gd-native-ttf (note there was a typo in 4.0.6 on this one) use: --enable-gd-native-tt if you are using 4.0.6 --enable-gd-imgstrttf --with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png-dir=/usr --with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6 This assumes that you have freetype2 installed along with the libjpeg and libpng libs under /usr -Rasmus Keep an eye on the output of configure as sometimes you'll see messages in there about the image libs - but the absence of same even if specified doesn't seem to crash the compilation. -- David Robley Techno-JoaT, Web Maintainer, Mail List Admin, etc CENTRE FOR INJURY STUDIES Flinders University, SOUTH AUSTRALIA And now for something completely the same...
