That's a trick I'll try.
OF note, when using available RPMs theoretically for CentOS 5:
* the netcdf RPM doesn't create a link that's just libnetcdf.so and this
link needs to be created.
* the link flr libpd.so needs to be created, too
* the RPMs for proj4 and proj4-devel do not provide the epsg info and
put things in /usr rather than /usr/local. everything that is expected,
for example, in /usr/local/share/epsg needs to go into /usr/share/epsg
and then it'll work fine.
We were able to find appropriate RPMs for all dependencies. I'll make a
list and serve that up soon.

I'm having to reinstall Mapserver after some significant hardware

For Linux, there's the suggestion to use FGS (used it before, isn't
latest version, but will probably work), or Debian. Sorry, guys, ubuntu
is a debian variant, so while it's nice that there's GIS systems for
debian, they are, to my mind, the same.
My question: Where's the information on dependencies to compile and use
Mapserver? If they reside in the pdf documentation, I've tried to snag
it, and the pdf appears damaged: unreadable in eVince or Acrobat reader.
Usually I take the the current Fedora source packages and recompile
them. If you are comfortable recompiling rpm source packages, then this
may give you what you need. The hardest one, IMHO, is gdal.
Looking for suggestions on how I might proceed.
Thanks, Gerry
