GD dependency on RT 3.6.0

RT Users

I’m trying to install RT 3.6.0 on FC5. I have all the
dependencies installed except GD.

GD …MISSING
GD::Graph …MISSING
GD::Text …MISSING

I’ve tried:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
install (and force) GD

I get:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lfontconfig

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make: *** [blib/arch/auto/GD/GD.so] Error 1

/usr/bin/make – NOT OK

Running make test

Can’t test without successful make

Running make install

make had returned bad status, install seems
impossible
Failed during this command:

LDS/GD-2.34.tar.gz : make
NO

Can someone lead me through loading this dependency
manually?

Thanks,
Shannon

Hi, Shannon

That’s the problem. Install fontconfig (along with the development
files) on your system.
But before check if the GD isn’t packed yet (most linux distributions
have binary packages for GD, assuming you are running a linux system).

I found that I had to install gd-devel, libpng-devel, and libjpeg-devel
(this may have been for another app I’m working with) before I could get
GD and GD::Graph installed properly. CentOS 4.2.
