Response to: Configuring with PHP 4.3's bundled libgd

You're right. I got PHP to compile with the bundled version of GD.


In addition to --with-gd, I needed to pass --with-png-dir=/sw because my libgd.a was in /sw/lib instead of /usr/lib.

    don't you mean libpng.a? ;-)

    The issue is that gd requires either libtiff or libpng (I think) to be available somewhere in your ld library path. Since neither is included by default in the Mac OS, the ./configure will fail with a very unhelpful error.

    Take care,
