newbie: trouble building mapserver

[Paul Hussein]

Hi,

I am trying for the first time to build mapserver from source on
CentOS 4.4 (RHEL 4 clone), and have hit a compilation error.

The error is as below :


./libmap.a(mapgeos.o)(.text+0x180b): In function `msGEOSArea':
/root/build/mapserver-4.10.0/mapgeos.c:1114: undefined reference to `GEOSArea'
./libmap.a(mapgeos.o)(.text+0x1873): In function `msGEOSLength':
/root/build/mapserver-4.10.0/mapgeos.c:1140: undefined reference to `GEOSLength'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [shp2img] Error 1


Can someone tell me if I need a specific version of the GEOS package,
or any other package. I have tried as much aspossible to follow the
linux build example given.

I include below a script I am using that gives all the versions and how I build.

Thanks


Paul.
