—————————————————————-1. - Introduction
The purpose of this document is to provide instructions on how
to install the GD Graphics Library on OS X 10.4.x Server.
You will not find many explanations as to why something is done
one way or the other. There are plenty of tutorials on this
around on the internet. This document should just help you in
getting things done.
The GD Graphic Library depends on other libraries to be
installed first. These include: zlib, libpng, libjpeg.
This document will require you to use the command line. If you
do not feel comfortable with using the command line, you should
look for a ready made installer package or for somebody to
assist you.
This document is written for Mac OS X 10.4.x. However, it should
apply to 10.3.x as well. Be aware though that I have not done
any particular testing of this procedure on 10.3.x.
