				| 
 |  
				| Hi all, 
 First of all, many thanks for this software!
 I must admit I'm a newbie in the linux world so what is following
 is probably easy to solve.
 I'm following the user manual for installation process.
 During the "make sequence" I'm getting this :
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | In file included from glmultichart.h:26, from htmlGenerate.h:51,
 from ../htmlgenerator/htmlMgr.c:37:
 glchart.h:26:16: gd.h: No such file or directory
 In file included from ../htmlgenerator/htmlMgr.c:38:
 glbucket.h:26:16: gd.h: No such file or directory
 make[2]: *** [htmlMgr.o] Error 1
 make[2]: Leaving directory `/.automount/ofxb1/root/home/demory/wview-1.8.6/htmlgenerator'
 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
 make[1]: Leaving directory `/.automount/ofxb1/root/home/demory/wview-1.8.6'
 make: *** [all] Error 2
 
 | 
 
 During the ./configure I noted this (amongst a few other "no") :
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | checking for gdImageCreate in -lgd... no | 
 
 I thought it was related to libgd but :
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | rpm -qa |grep libgd libgd-2.0.33-3
 | 
 
 Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
 Thanks,
 Brice, Switzerland

				| Short answer is it is not finding the libgd headers... An rpm installation probably placed it somewhere other than /usr/local.
 
 You will need to find out where gd.h and libgd.so are (i.e. /usr/include and /usr/lib), then issue the following commands as root before configuring and building wview:
 
 export CFLAGS=-I/usr/include
 export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib
 
 (replace "/usr/include" and "/usr/lib" with wherever they are found).
 
 To find them:
 cd /
 find . -name "libgd.so*" -print
 find . -name "gd.h" -print
 
 Why in the world are you using such an old linux distribution anyway?

				| Thank you for your answer. 
 Actually I get a related problem, after having followed your procedure :
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | In file included from glchart.h:26, from glmultichart.h:26,
 from htmlGenerate.h:51,
 from ../htmlgenerator/htmlMgr.c:37:
 /usr/include/gd.h:25:19: gd_io.h: No such file or directory
 make[2]: *** [htmlMgr.o] Error 1
 make[2]: Leaving directory `/.automount/ofxb1/root/home/demory/wview-1.8.6/htmlgenerator'
 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
 make[1]: Leaving directory `/.automount/ofxb1/root/home/demory/wview-1.8.6'
 make: *** [all] Error 2
 
 | 
 
 and I still get this one :
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | checking for gdImageCreate in -lgd... no 
 | 
 
 I've uninstalled and installed again the gd package.
 
 
  	  | Quote: |  	  | Why in the world are you using such an old linux distribution anyway?

 It has been installed over a network of an astronomical observatory a few years ago. But we're planning to move to Ubuntu in the next months.
 
 Thanks for your help Mark.

				| OK, then you need to find gd_io.h in the same manner as described before. You might want to provide the entire "gcc ..." line so we could see what the include paths are for the build. On my Fedora Core 4 machine (rpm install of gd), all of the headers for gd are in /usr/include (gd.h and gd_io.h). 
 If you do find it in a different directory, add that directory to the "CFLAGS" export statement.
 
 I wonder if you have a full install of libgd or just the shared library install for run time use. If you don't have gd_io.h anywhere on your system, it is not a full development install of gd.

				| Thanks for your fast response. I uninstalled and reinstalled libgd correctly this time, I found gd.h and gd_io.h.
 Then I entered as root:
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | export CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
 | 
 
 But as I launched ./configure, I got (seems related to the CFLAGS/LDFLAGS change as I haven't done anything else):
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes
 checking for gawk... gawk
 checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
 checking for style of include used by make... GNU
 checking for gcc... gcc
 checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
 checking whether the C compiler works... yes
 checking whether we are cross compiling... no
 checking for suffix of executables...
 checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
 See `config.log' for more details.

 And the config.log :
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | [demory@ofxb5 wview-1.8.6]$ cat config.log This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
 running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
 
 It was created by wview configure 1.8.6, which was

 What am I doing wrong ?
 
 Thank you for your time !
 Brice
 
 PS : I installed libgd without fontconfig because even the oldest version of this one implies to update glibc etc. installed on the system ! I think it becomes important to install an updated distro like ubuntu !

				| I have no idea, maybe you ran configure as root before and now you are not, etc. 
 Just blow away the wview-1.8.6 directory, extract it again and start over.
 
 That is not related to the CFLAGS, etc. it is a standard internal test of autoconf and has nothing specifically to do with wview.
 
 Did you install gd to the /usr/local prefix this time? That is implied by your CFLAGS,etc. settings...

				| OK, solved ! 
 I entered :
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | unset CFLAGS unset LDFLASG
 ./configure
 | 
 
 And everything worked smoothly ! The critical point was apparently
 to desinstall and reinstall a clean libgd.
 Now it is compiled, I'll get to a more interesting step tomorrow : configuration.
 
 Many thanks, Mark ! You'll add a new wview station in your links the next few days
   
 Cheers
 Brice
