[Mapserver-users] Configure: Same old error - can't find gd.h or libgd.a/lib - Further Elaboratio

[Adam Quiney]

With regards to my previous question, looking through my config.log file, I 
noticed the following:

>configure:4774: checking for GD 2.0.12 or higher......
>configure:4818: checking for gdImageSetAntiAliased in -lgd
>configure:4818: checking for gdImageSetAntiAliased in -lgd
>configure:4849: gcc -o conftest.exe -g -O2   conftest.c -lgd  -lfreetype 
>-lz -L/
>lib -lpng -L/lib -lz  -L/usr/local/lib  -lm  >&5
>/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3.1/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
