jpeg-6b

Anon

I have a few questions regarding installing gd-1.8.3 and jpgeg-6b. I am using a Red Hat Linux server with version 6.2 linux. This server is an Apache web server.

If you have jpeg-6b folder in linux, does gd-1.8.3 automatically find
and install it or do I have to do the "make install" for both gd-1.8.3 and jpeg-6b?

When I try make in gd-1.8.3, I get this error:

gcc -I. -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include/X11 -I/usr/X11R6/include/X11
-O -c
-o gdtestttf.o gdtestttf.c
gdtestttf.c:11: parse error before `>'
gdtestttf.c:24: parse error before string constant
gdtestttf.c:24: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
gdtestttf.c:25: parse error before string constant
gdtestttf.c:25: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
gdtestttf.c:26: parse error before string constant
gdtestttf.c:26: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
make: *** [gdtestttf.o] Error 1

When I try make install, I get this error:

sh ./install-item 644 libgd.a /usr/local/lib/gd/libgd.a
../install-item: : command not found
../install-item: : command not found
make: *** [install] Error 127
[root@thor gd-1.8.3]#

Does anyone have any sugestions?

Thanks,

Jamie

I've looked at the same problem this week.

I have jpeg and gd installed, and compiled and installed jpeg ('make' and 'make install'). Then I edited the Makefile in the gd subdirectory. There is an entry

#variation of this and comment out the line above. See also LIBS below.
CFLAGS=-O -DHAVE_JPEG

which needs to be uncommented.

then, do a 'make' on gd. The gd compile ought to take-up the jpeg functions. You can check this by looking at the libgd.a file in the gd subdirectory-

'objdump -x ./libgd.a | grep jpeg | more'

you should see the jpeg-6b functions within the .a file.

Steve,

I'm trying to "make install" in jpeg-6b and I haven't had any luck with that either.

I'm confused as to wether the makefile code is supposed to point to the jconfig.h file that was on my web server before I copied jpeg-6b onto it or am I supposed to re-name jconfig.doc to jconfig.h in the jpeg-6b folder? I re-named jconfig.doc to jconfig.h and tried "make" and got a whole bunch of errors. I then tried "make install and got the error below."

"No rule to make target install."

Any suggestions?
