in thread Inline::C and gd

a perl -V dump returns something like this :

    Okay. That's a different error message (undefined symbol jpeg_destroy). Doing an "nm -a libgd.so | grep jpeg_destroy" on my system shows that libgd.so has an unresolved dependency for that function. jpeg_destory is part of the jpg library. Do you have libjpg.so anywhere in your libpths?

        You could try using the latest gcc, GCC 3.1. RedHat has been known to ship some seriously strange and/or "controversial" compilers, and 2.96 is one of those. If you can, try and upgrade.

        Otherwise, this could be a simple case of library linkage problems. A good whack with ldconfig might help.
