<snip> conftest.c:(.text+0x23): undefined reference to `gdFontCacheSetup' </snip> Try to re-emerge gd (with USE=fontconfig maybe if just re-emerging it with your current flags doesn't help); if it still doesn't work then, post emerge -pv media-libs/gd output here.
emerge still fails. output of emerge -pv media-libs/gd: slate_vm mapserver # emerge -pv media-libs/gd These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] media-libs/gd-2.0.34 USE="fontconfig -jpeg -png -truetype -xpm" 0 kB Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB (I enabled fontconfig use flag with "euse -E fontconfig" and reemerged gd, trying to emerge mapserver afterwards fails with the same error message as before) Thanks for your efforts, Ole.
Hmm, maybe it needs USE=truetype, lets let someone else dig into this... :)
Enabling truetype (as you suggested) and jpeg and recompiling everything with # euse -E truetype -E jpeg # emerge -v media-libs/gd # emerge -v sci-geosciences/mapserver finally did the trick. Thanks for your suggestions. Ole.
*** Bug 188776 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Why exactly did you resolve this? Reopen.
Mapserver builds and runs fine here: [ebuild U ] media-libs/gd-2.0.35 [2.0.34] USE="jpeg png truetype -fontconfig -xpm" so it looks like it's probably truetype that it needs in this case.
Solved in 4.10.3 version and also in older ones... thx nerdboy
