Steve indicated his version is hand compiled, you're using the Sun Freeware
version...

(and yes, Steve, you should be building .so - shared - libraries)

It's certainly possible that he created a version of gd on a system without
libiconv that doesn't need it.  But I'm stumped about what's different
between the 3 systems you're talking about...


It shouldn't hurt to have an extra -l, so I wonder if we can get Luca to
'splain why he removed it... putting it back would be, IMHO, the simplest
answer.

Luca??


On the plus side, it looks like he commited the bus fix change into pbuf.c
along with the other crud he did this morning (US time).

On 2 out of 3 systems I've tried it on. (So no pattern)

Binary from SunFreeware because all these systems had MRTG installed first.

  Like I said having the libiconv is not the determining factor, I actaully
wrote something like that as a test with pkginfo SMCiconv. But one system I
tried it on DID NOT have the libiconv package installed and still failed the
gd test so having that switch will not solve the problem. The dependency
could be in GD but looks like at least one other person who built by hand
has this problem also so....I'll poke around at it again when I have
sometime but at least we know that 2.2.96 works with a few small tweaks.
