[mapserver-users] Compiling Trunk - problems with gifs

[Fawcett, David (MPCA)]

I am working on compiling a pretty stripped down mapserv binary based on trunk (11/25) on CentOS 5.  I successfully compiled GD with jpeg, png, and freetype support.  Gdlib-config --features returns GD_JPEG, GD_FREETYPE, GD_PNG, GD_GIF, GD_GIFANIM, GD_OPENPOLYGON.  

When I try to compile MapServer using the basic ./configure --with-gd=/usr/, I get a bunch of messages saying that MapServer can't find the gif stuff
configure: checking where GIF is installed...
checking for DGifOpenFileHandle in -lgif... no
checking gif_lib.h usability... no
checking gif_lib.h presence... no
checking for gif_lib.h... no
configure: error: cannot find gif headers in system path

I noticed a recent post on mapserver-dev about adding an additional flag to configure for gifs.  But, when I try ./configure --with-gd=/usr/ --with-gif=/usr/  or (./configure --with-gd=/usr/ --with-gif=/usr)  I get an error message telling me that MapServer can't find the gif stuff.
configure: checking where GIF is installed...
configure: error: cannot find gif lib in /usr/

I didn't compile gif_lib and don't see it anywhere in /usr.  Do I need to compile a gif lib before or after compiling GD, or can MapServer just use the gif support in GD?  

Any help is greatly appreciated.  

David.
