build-perl-modules when no gd libraries has been installed
Last modified: 2019-01-25 12:07:26 UTC
build-perl-modules.pl fails to compile "GD" unless I've installed libgd2-xpm-dev manually on the Ubuntu installation. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.1 (the JeOS distribution) in a virtual machine. Maybe it would be a good idea to mention that libgd2-xpm-dev needs to be installed in the output of the build-perl-modules.pl script in the same way as this is mentioned for libmysqlclient and libexpat1-dev.
This should be pretty obvious to anyone running the script, but sure we can add some more info about GD.
Moving 7.4 bugs to 8.0.
