 We followed the instruction found at
 http://mapguide.osgeo.org/sites/mapguide.osgeo.org/files/BuildingAndConfiguringMGOSOnLinux.pdf.

 This included a successful build of FDO, including SDF, SHP, and other
 providers.
 Then we moved on to build MapGuide.

 We made it to page 3.
 Under "Building and Installing the Default Configuration" everything went
 fine until the make in step 6. Then we ran into problems because it was
 unable to find header files for SDF. Specifically, it first failed to find
 SDF/IScrollableFeatureReader.h.

 After poking around, I found that the FDO build seems to have created a
 /usr/local/fd-3.3.0 directory which contained an include directory. This
 is where I would expect to find SDF header files. The include directory
 did contain a subdirectory for each of the providers that we downloaded
 except for SDF.

 I played around with various things like manually creating an SDF
 subdirectory and copying the header files from the source. But so far,
 nothing has solved the build problems.
