| Subject: | make test fails on RH 7.2 with Perl 5.8.0 with gd-2.0.28 and GD Perl 2.16 |
On RedHat 7.2, the make test for the perl GD failed for me (See [FAILS]).
Turns out I had an old libgd in /usr/lib and the Makefile for all GD Perl's prior to 2.0.15 would use /usr/local/lib first. In 2.15, the LD_RUN_PATH changed in the Makefile to put /usr/lib first which caused linking issues.
I thought I would report this because this sounded similar to some other bugs I've seen reported with RedHat and it might help someone else.

NOTICE: This module requires libgd 2.0.12 or higher.
it will NOT work with earlier versions.
See www.cpan.org for versions of GD that are compatible
with earlier versions of libgd.
If you are using Math::Trig 1.01 or lower, it has a bug that
causes a "prerequisite not found" warning to be issued. You may
safely ignore this warning.

GD library used from: /usr/local
If you experience compile problems, please check the @INC, @LIBPATH and @LIBS
arrays defined in Makefile.PL and manually adjust, if necessary.
