I am trying to install perl Chart::Plot module in my home directory since i dont have the right to install in the server. This module is dependent on GD module so i am trying to install GD-1.38 first. but it gives me following error
>perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/usr/home/myname/usr/local NOTICE: This module requires libgd 1.8.4 or higher (shared library version 4.X). Please choose the features that match how libgd was built: Build JPEG support? [y] y Build FreeType support? [y] y Build XPM support? [y] y Build GIF support (for patched versions of gd)?
