'make' failed using cpan to install the GD module in perl 5.14.2, installed on a QNAP NAS device. It just said it 'had problems' and 'won't make', 'won't test' etc
So I tried a direct perl compile of the module but got the warning listed in the title of this post during configuration using 'perl Makefile.PL' and 'make' did absolutely nothing! See below for the full output


Googling 'found gd.h header file in /usr/includegd.h' yields many posts but no obvious solution!
gd-2.0.28 has been installed

Prior to pasting what happened, please note this:

find /* -name 'gd.h'
shows: 
/share/MD0_DATA/misc/gd-2.0.28/<b>gd.h</b>
/share/MD0_DATA/.qpkg/Optware/include/gd.h

[download]

in case it appears below, /opt is a shortcut to /share/MD0_DATA/.qpkg/Optware

So here we go:

cd /share/MD0_DATA/.cpan/build_dir/GD-2.46-hg6AiN

[/share/MD0_DATA/.cpan/build_dir/GD-2.46-hg6AiN] # perl Makefile.PL
Notice: Type perl Makefile.PL -h for command-line option summary.

Configuring for libgd version 2.0.28.
