Created attachment 3848 [details] Fix for libgd support. This fixes the problem with libgd not detecting. PHP 4.2.2 needs gd 1.8.x, not gd 2.x, so changing the dependancy for using ~media-libs/libgd-1.8.3 was the fix there. Also added a clause to gd, enabling gd's native ttf support by checking if gd, and freetype USE flags are enabled.
php works fine with gd2 and freetype2 (for freetype2 i had to add --with- freetype-dir to make it work) but its a problem with the gd ebuild (see #7810)
Well....Just compiled php with old libgd (try to build using tips from bug #7810 , but that didn't help..) ebuild (bumped to r1) included.. Thanx all, Rigo
