[mrtg] Unable to complete ./configure run

[Chi Dang]

Hi,

I am trying to set up the MRTG for my Solaris system, but running into
these failed tests. I had followed the instruction to install zlib,
libpng and gd (make and install them into standard /usr/local directory)
and no shared files *.so.* .

It does not matter what I do afterward, I kept getting the failed tests
of these - I did a, b and c to the letter. I read the configure file and
specified all the directories (both standard and using --with options)
without any success. I assume that these tests are necessary so I want
to resolve the problem.

Any pointer to help out?

Thanks,
Chi Dang

PS: output from my system and /usr/local directory below

** Ooops, one of many bad things happened:

   a)  You don't have the GD library installed.
       Get it from http://www.boutell.com, compile it and
       use either --with-gd-lib=DIR and --with-gd-inc=DIR to specify
       its location. You might also have to use --with-z-inc,
             --with-z-lib and --with-png-inc, --with-png-lib for gd
             versions 1.6 and higher.  Check config.log for more
       information on the problem.

   b)  You have the GD library installed, but not the gd.h
       header file.  Download the source (see above) and use
       --with-gd-inc=DIR to specify where the file can be found.

   c)  You have the library and the header file installed, but
       you also have a shared GD library in the same directory.
       Remove the shared library files and/or links (e.g.
       libgd.so.2.0.0, libgd.so and libgd.so.2).  This is especially
             likely if you're using a recent (post 1.8.4) version of GD
       and didn't configure it with --disable-shared.
