compiling gdlib

[kireol]

Hi all.

I'm trying to compile gdlib on my fedora box. I made the mistake of compiling over my fedora installed version, and I have no idea how to get the original back, so I'm going forward with compiling.

I'm not sure how to get gd configure to see my jpeg library.

I'm using: ./configure '--with-jpeg=/usr/local/bin' '--with-png=/usr/local/lib'
(i've also tried /usr/local/lib and /usr/local

png is there, but not jpeg

** Configuration summary for gd 2.0.33:

   Support for PNG library:          yes
   Support for JPEG library:         no
   Support for Freetype 2.x library: yes
   Support for Fontconfig library:   no
   Support for Xpm library:          no
   Support for pthreads:             yes

I've searched around and saw I guess I need to download and install jpeg-6b

so I do so:

jpeg-6b.tar.gz

[root@localhost jpeg-6b]# make install
/usr/bin/install -c cjpeg /usr/local/bin/cjpeg
/usr/bin/install -c djpeg /usr/local/bin/djpeg
/usr/bin/install -c jpegtran /usr/local/bin/jpegtran
/usr/bin/install -c rdjpgcom /usr/local/bin/rdjpgcom
/usr/bin/install -c wrjpgcom /usr/local/bin/wrjpgcom
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./cjpeg.1 /usr/local/man/man1/cjpeg.1
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./djpeg.1 /usr/local/man/man1/djpeg.1
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./jpegtran.1 /usr/local/man/man1/jpegtran.1
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./rdjpgcom.1 /usr/local/man/man1/rdjpgcom.1
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./wrjpgcom.1 /usr/local/man/man1/wrjpgcom.1

Have I installed the wrong jpeg package or am i pointing to the wrong spot, or ? 🙂

thanks!

I had this same problem and searched all over looking for an answer. I see a lot of people had this problem but never saw an answer.

I was finally able to get it to find the jpeg library but I had to add the --enable-shared --enable-static to the jpeg configure. If you dont' do this and use a generic configure the jpeg install won't create the lib directories you need.

cd jpeg-6b
./configure --prefix= --enable-shared --enable-static

cd gd-2.0.33
./configure
