in reply to Trouble with GD.pm and gd

Have you read the bit about patching gd-1.8.3 on solaris systems in the README? CPAN GD Readme

Try #2: have you adjusted this part of Makefile.pl?
my @INC = qw(-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/gd); my @LIBPATH = qw(-L/usr/lib/X11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11/lib -L/usr +/local/lib ); my @LIBS = qw(-lgd -lpng -lz);

    Yes, when I do so, gd won't compile. It complains that it cannot find libz, which is in /usr/local/lib.

    I forgot to add that I fixed my include path (removed /usr/local/include/gd as gd had installed them in /usr/local/include) and, tadah, still experiencing the same error.
