[Mapserver-users] LabelAngleItem

[Daniel Morissette]

We've seen this problem before, and the solution is somewhere in the 
list archives but I can't track it down.  You're using a recent RedHat 
release, right?  If I remember correctly, the problem was solved by 
removing the freetype-devel RPMs on the system, then downloading and 
installing the latest freetype release from source and rebuilding GD 
2.0.x using it, and finally rebuilding MapServer with this new GD.
