gnuplot 4.4 rc1 build failure

[<mw...@us...>]

Hi All,

I tried to build 4.4 RC1 on Solaris 9.  Here are the libraries I have.

zlib 1.2.3
libpng 1.2.18
freetype 2.3.5
gd 2.0.33
gcc 3.4.6 or gcc 4.2.?  ( I will try with Sun compiler soon)

The failure came from the file breader.c.  I got a link err for a call to GDImageCreateFromJPEG.   I don't have JPEG libraries as part of the GD library.  It looks like some pre-processor check need to be added around this call and maybe others? 

config.h has the proper settings for HAVE_GD_PNG and HAVE_GD_JPEG is undefined.  So the configure script picked-up on the fact the JPEG libraries were not available.

The ran quick tests after commenting out the 1 offending call.  The X11 and PNG seem to work.  I didn't test any other terminals yet.  I do get a warning from 'set term png' about the 'arial' font not being found.  I don't think you could find one font that is available on every operating system.
