undefined symbol when using mapscript

[Chris Fuhrman]

Howdy,

I'm afraid this is going to be a typical newbie-type question but...

I've downloaded the complete mapserv package and installed it according to
the instructions on the web site.  I am now testing the mapscript with
some sample data I grabbed from ESRI's web site. 

Unfortunately, when I run my test script, I get the following error:

Can't load
'/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/auto/mapscript/mapscript.so'
for module
mapscript: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/auto/mapscript/mapscript.so: undefined
symbol: gdImageGif at /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-linux/DynaLoader.pm line
169.

I'm compiling this under Redhat Linux 6.1 (kernel 2.2.12-20) with perl
5.005.  I believe I've got everything installed right although it looks
like mapscript doesn't know where to find the gdImageGif Function.

Suggestions?
