At my wits end with GD libraries! It should work!

absolutely.  You have to have the -devel side of things to compile
against it.

This doesn't do anything if you aren't changing your ld.so.conf
here's mine:
---
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib
/usr/local/lib
/usr/lib
/lib
/usr/local/lib/php/lib
/usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib
---

if you're reconfiguring, do "make distclean" ("make clean" only removes
previously compiled binaries, not config stuff)

I assume you meant ./configure...

here is my configure statement (nag v2.0, but still similar), if this
helps:
./configure  --with-nagios-user=nagios --with-nagios-grp=nagios --
prefix=/usr/local/nagios-2.0 --with-file-perfdata --with-command-
user=apache --with-command-grp=apache --with-lockfile=/usr/local/nagios-
2.0/var/nagios.lock --with-init-dir=/etc/init.d --enable-event-broker --
enable-embedded-perl --with-perlcache

Note:  no explicit library defs.  your ld.so.conf should cover this.

try 'find / -name "libpng.so"' (or whatever)
