I'm trying to build GD, but have it use a libgd (Boutell's C library)
that I built in my own ~/opt directory. The problem is, there's also an
older libgd installed on the system (2.0.9 I think), but I don't have
root access and so cannot remove this older version. I want GD to
eventually get installed into ~/perllib.
I've tried "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/me/perllib", but
unfortunately, it's finding the gd.h in /usr/include (the old one)
instead of /home/me/opt/include (the current one), and it's causing the
build to fail.
How can I get GD to build correctly using my own locally-installed
libgd on a system that also has an older libgd present?

Probably easiest to just do some appropriate harcoding in the Makefile.PL.
(This is what I do on Win32, and it works for me.)
Find the'LIBS' and 'INC' entries in the WriteMakefile() section of said
Makefile.PL and change them to something like:
'LIBS' => [join(' ','/home/me/opt/lib',@LIBPATH,@LIBS)],
'INC' => join(' ','/home/me/opt/include',@INC),
Then just run 'make clean' and start over again - responding to all prompts
as usual.
You haven't told us where libgd is so I've had a guess that it's in
/home/me/opt/lib - which, of course, is not necessarily the case.
Cheers,
Rob

Hm. Seems like there ought to be an easier way...

Yup. That's the place.
Well, anyway, after changing those lines in Makefile.PL, creating the
makefile seems to still have issues:

That ./blib/arch/auto/GD/GD.so does indeed exist. Line 14 of GD.t is:
"use GD qw(:DEFAULT GD_CMP_IMAGE);".
After that, "make install" seems to work fine.
For kicks, I tried out the demos anyway. I added "use lib
'/home/me/perllib';" and they wouldn't work. Then I tried "use lib
'/home/me/perllib/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux';", and, to my
surprise, they worked. The sample cgi script also worked.
Why did "make test" fail?

Hm. Also note:
~/opt/src/perl_modules/GD-2.35/blib/arch/auto/GD$ ldd ./GD.so
[snip]
libgd.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgd.so.2 (0x0030a000)
[snip]
So, it's not even using my new libgd.

You're sure that /home/me/opt/include/gd.h exists ? .... it's not (eg)
/home/me/opt/include/gd/gd.h ?
How about:
'LIBS' => [join(' ','-L/home/me/opt/lib',@LIBPATH,@LIBS)],
'INC' => join(' ','-I/home/me/opt/include',@INC),
(Sorry about that ... without the '-L' and '-I' switches those first
elements achieve nothing.)
Turns out that on Win32, all I really need to do is have:
'LIBS' => [join(' ',@LIBPATH,@LIBS)],
'INC' => join(' ',@INC),
And both gd.h and libgd.a are found correctly - so long as I provide the
correct location of libgd.a when prompted by the Makefile.PL. Based on the
reported location of your gd.h and libgd.a, the same should be happening for
you .... don't knowwhy that's not the case. Anyway, try inserting the '-L'
and '-I' (that's uppercase i) and see if that helps. (For me, libgd.a is in
D:/MSYS/local/lib and gd.h is in D:/MSYS/local/include.)
Cheers,
Rob
