Hi J.F.,
some libs could not be found at the beginning. But while I wrote this mail I
succeeded in having the configure-script (nearly) without errors.
So, this is how to configure map-server on FreeBSD 4.7. I suppose it is
similar on Linux?
The options I used at the beginning and the output:
root at qwertzuiop#
./configure --with-gd --with-gdal --with-ogr --with-proj --with-jpeg --with-
zlib --with-freetype --with-php=/usr/ports/www/mod_php4/work/php-4.3.1 --wit
h-wmsclient --with-postgis --enable-runpath

checking whether the C++ compiler (c++ ) works... yes

checking for ANSI C header files... yes
checking for strcasecmp... yes
checking for strncasecmp... yes
checking for strdup... yes
checking whether we should include JPEG support...
checking for jpeg_read_header in -ljpeg... no
libjpeg not found. JPEG support not included, possibly needed for
GD.
First I specified either /usr/local/include, because jpeglib.h (not sure
now) is to be found there or /usr/local/lib, because libjpeg.a/libjpeg.so
are to be found there. But I always got "Could not find jpeglib.h (not sure
now) or libjpeg.a/libjpeg.so. One path was of course always wrong.
checking which version of GD to use...
using libgd from system libs.
checking where FreeType is installed...
checking for freetype-config... /usr/local/bin/freetype-config
using libfreetype from -L/usr/local/lib -lfreetype -lz
checking for FT_Init_FreeType in -lfreetype... no
checking for TT_Init_FreeType in -lttf... no
using libfreetype -L/usr/local/lib -lfreetype -lz from system libs.
checking where Zlib is installed...
checking for zlibVersion in -lz... yes
using libz from system libs.
checking where PNG is installed...
checking for png_init_io in -lpng... no
PNG (libpng) library cannot be found, possibly needed for GD
I simply forgot to specify --with-png.
checking for gdImageCreate in -lgd... yes
checking for gdImageGif in -lgd... yes
checking for gdImagePng in -lgd... yes
checking for gdImageJpeg in -lgd... yes
checking for gdImageWBMP in -lgd... yes

checking for gdImageGifPtr in -lgd... yes
using GD
( -DUSE_GD_GIF -DUSE_GD_PNG -DUSE_GD_JPEG -DUSE_GD_WBMP -DUSE_GD_FT -DGD_HAS
_GDIMAGEGIFPTR) from system libs.
I don't understand -DUSE_GD_GIF, because I thought GIF is no longer
supported by map-server/GD2.
checking whether we should include PDF support...
checking for PDF_setlinewidth in -lpdf... no
checking for PDF_setrgbcolor in -lpdf... no
checking for PDF_moveto in -lpdf... no
checking for PDF_curveto in -lpdf... no
checking for PDF_show_xy in -lpdf... no
libpdf not found... PDF support not included.
pdflib.h and libpdf.a/libpdf.so have to be found. So it is the same problem
as with jpeg.
checking whether we should include TIFF support...
checking for TIFFOpen in -ltiff... yes
using libtiff from system libs.
checking whether we should include EPPL7 support...
including EPPL7 support.
checking whether we should include PROJ.4 support...
checking for pj_init in -lproj... no
checking for pj_transform in -lproj... no
checking for pj_latlong_from_proj in -lproj... no
configure: warning: PROJ.4 not found in system libs...
use --with-proj=DIR.
projects.h and libproj.a/libproj.so are neccessary. So it is the same
problem.
checking whether we should include thread safe support...
thread safe support disabled.
checking whether we should include ESRI SDE support...
ESRI SDE support not requested.

After proj4 was found libwww was found, too.

I am on the way to find out, how to build php in the ports-collection with
this option. At the very moment I have to wait for the answer from the
FreeBSD mailinglist.
The rest seems to work. Freetype, zlib, tiff, php, gdal (ogr) where all
installed from the ports-collection and are found without specfying the path
(only php need the path to its sources), as you can see.
Now only php has to be re-compiled, but the rest is ok :-)!! See here:

Thanks for your help! I hope the rest will run smoothly. Finally the problem
wasn't actually a big one :-).

I was about to send you this mail, but meanwhile I got the answer for the
php problem. It is still a problem! :-(
I ought to add to the Makefile CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-system-regex.
BUT, I looked into the Makefile and, what a surprise, I found
"CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-regex=system"
Another strange thing is that under "CONFIGURE_ARGS+= the following is to be
found:
--without-gd \
--without-mysql
But I specified to install gd and mysql at the installation of php4 (the
installation starts with a menu, where I cold choose what I want to install
additionally. GD and mysql were definitely installed while the
php-installation. The map-server configure script finds gd. Somehow strange.
I then had a look at the help of the configure script and found the
following:
--with-regex=TYPE regex library type: system, apache, php. Default: php
Warning: Do not use...you know :-)!
Well, at the moment I am stuck. But I will ask in the bsd mailing list again
and tell you the answer.
Have a nice weekend!
