[Gnuplot-info] gnuplot and gd (png support)

[Charles G. <cha...@un...>]

Dear list,

I'm running into issues trying to compile gnuplot-4.4.3 on a RedHat box. I
have an applocation which is not satisfied with the 4.0.0 currently offered
by RedHat. So I'm trying to compile the newer one. GD seems to be installed
correctly and gdlib-config reports:

$ gdlib-config --all
GD library  2.0.33
includedir: /usr/include
cflags:     -I/usr/include
ldflags:    -L/usr/lib64
libs:       -lXpm -lX11 -ljpeg -lfontconfig -lfreetype -lpng12 -lz -lm
libdir:     /usr/lib64
features:   GD_XPM GD_JPEG GD_FONTCONFIG GD_FREETYPE GD_PNG GD_GIF

Yet, when I try to compile I get:

[...]
configure:12699: result:   jpeg terminal: yes
configure:12708: result:   gif terminal: yes (with animated gif)
configure:12724: result:   png terminal: no (requires libgd with png
support)
configure:12732: result:     (jpeg, gif and png terminals cannot use TTF
fonts, requires libgd support)
configure:12748: result:   pdf terminal: no (requires libpdf)

Unfortunately, PNG is precisely what I need for gretl. Without it I get:

configure:16019: checking for gnuplot
configure:16035: found /usr/local/bin/gnuplot
configure:16046: result: yes
configure:16060: checking for gnuplot >= 4.2.0 with PNG support
configure:16079: result: no

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
