One of the groups I support wants me to install GD on a server so they use captcha. I figure I'm going to need to provide graphics support for other apps, so I'm cool with their request. Anyway, when I ran configure after downloading gd-2.0.35.tar.gz, it didn't see support for critical libraries:

Support for PNG library: no
Support for JPEG library: no
Support for Freetype 2.x library: no
Support for Fontconfig library: no
Support for Xpm library: no
Support for pthreads: yes

Does anyone know what I need to install to get this running? Thanks

CentOS is RedHat based, is it not? Does it use rpm? yum? I don't know anything about it, so this may not be the answer you're looking for, but:

libpng
libpng-devel
libjpeg
libjpeg-devel
freetype-2
freetype-devel-2
fontconfig
fontconfig-devel
libXpm
libXpm-devel

that oughtta do it...

Man, Ubuntu sure spoils a person. I remember wrangling with all of that kind of stuff.
