Thanks (again!) Daniel!

Installing libgd-dev (Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS) via aptitude did the
trick for getting the freetype and other dependencies to resolve.

However, I still get the following error (see last line -- I excised things
in common from original thread output):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sure GD 2.0.16 or higher is compiled before calling configure. You may also
get this error if you didn't specify the appropriate location for one of
GD's dependencies (freetype, libpng, libjpeg or libiconv).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But I do have these files on my system:

/usr/include/gd.h
/usr/lib/libgd.a
/usr/lib/libgd.so

I would think they would get recognized from what I provided as my
'--with-gd=/usr/' argument.

Any ideas?

Thanks again,
Matt
