[Gdal-dev] compile problems re: GIF on RHEL 5/64-bit platform

[Doug_Newcomb at fws.gov]

John,

      If it helps, I've just compiled 1.4.2 on Centos 5 64-bit using the
external gif libraries and it finished compilation  using the system
giflib-devel-4.1.3-7.1.el5.1.  Frank,  what are the advantages of using the
internal gif library over the external gif library ?

John,

Could you try substituting:

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/frmts/gif/libungif/egif_lib.c?format=raw


for gdal/frmts/gif/libungif/egif_lib.c and see if that builds?  If so,
please file a bug against GDAL and I'll make sure this fix makes it into
the 1.4 branch too.  I'm guessing that RHEL 5 is removing some deprecated
macros, like S_IREAD and S_IWRITE as part of a cleanup-and-modernize
effort.

Best regards,
