I have a cgi app that requires the perl-GD cpan module. I have used it, recompiled it etc in Red Hat since 7.0 and maybe even earlier. Now I cannot get the perl-GD module to recompile on 8.0 and simply do not have enough knowledge to figure out why. I've tried rebuilding it from the source RPM from 7.1 or 7.2 (cant remember which) and it fails. I've also tried to get it via cpan with: perl -MCPAN -e shell then install GD this is the output: cpan> install GD CPAN: Storable loaded ok Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata Database was generated on Tue, 15 Oct 2002 19:23:00 GMT Running install for module GD Running make for L/LD/LDS/GD-2.02.tar.gz CPAN: Digest::MD5 loaded ok CPAN: Compress::Zlib loaded ok Checksum for /root/.cpan/sources/authors/id/L/LD/LDS/GD-2.02.tar.gz ok Scanning cache /root/.cpan/build for sizes GD-2.02/ GD-2.02/t/ GD-2.02/t/GD.t GD-2.02/t/Polyline.t GD-2.02/t/test.out.1.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.2.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.3.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.4.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.5.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.6.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.7.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.8.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.9.png GD-2.02/t/Generic.ttf GD-2.02/t/frog.jpg GD-2.02/t/frog.xpm GD-2.02/t/tile.png GD-2.02/t/palettemap.png GD-2.02/t/test.out.10.png GD-2.02/GD/ GD-2.02/GD/Polyline.pm GD-2.02/patch_gd.pl GD-2.02/GD.pm GD-2.02/GD.xs GD-2.02/demos/ GD-2.02/demos/brushes.pl GD-2.02/demos/font_list.png GD-2.02/demos/fonttest GD-2.02/demos/polys.pl GD-2.02/demos/fills.pl GD-2.02/demos/truetype_test GD-2.02/demos/shapes.pl GD-2.02/demos/copies.pl GD-2.02/demos/ttf.pl GD-2.02/demos/gd_example.cgi GD-2.02/demos/tile.png GD-2.02/demos/polyline.pl GD-2.02/demos/transform.pl GD-2.02/qd.pl GD-2.02/README GD-2.02/Makefile.PL GD-2.02/README.QUICKDRAW GD-2.02/typemap GD-2.02/bdf_scripts/ GD-2.02/bdf_scripts/README GD-2.02/bdf_scripts/cvtbdf.pl GD-2.02/bdf_scripts/bdftogd GD-2.02/README.unix GD-2.02/ChangeLog GD-2.02/MANIFEST Removing previously used /root/.cpan/build/GD-2.02 CPAN.pm: Going to build L/LD/LDS/GD-2.02.tar.gz NOTICE: This module requires libgd 2.0.1 or higher.
