Software installation error on RHEL-6
 
Hi,

I tried to install eugene software on RHEL-6 64 bit server. After extracting (tar -zxvf eugene-3.6.tar.gz) compilation files from eugene.tar.gz, i used ./configure to compile. Since I already installed gd (>=2.0), compilation error comes in need of gd lib (>=2.0). Again i removed the software & installed newly downloaded. But still it showing same error.

What's the exact error in this? Please help me in this regard.

Thanks in advance.

Code:

[root@localhost eugene-3.6]# ./configure

Error! You need to have the gd library (>= 2.0) to compile eugene.
See http://www.boutell.com/gd/http/ for a download.

[root@localhost eugene-3.6]# yum install gd
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin

Package gd-2.0.35-10.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

[root@localhost eugene-3.6]#

You probably need the gd-devel package if you're compiling.

You need the GD development libraries. Try installing libgd-devel from your RHEL repos, or give RHEL support a call, since you're paying for it with your RHEL subscription. They can tell you the library name.

you might want to go over to amazon and look at some RHEL6 books
http://www.amazon.com/Red-Enterprise...=AG56TWVU5XWC2
and read the red hat documentation
https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/...erprise_Linux/


it sounds like you need to learn some of the basics
