Hello, I am familiar with installing gnuplot from source in the usual way on linux and getting it to produce jpegs by installing libgd beforehand. However, I am now trying to do the same thing on a server which I don't have ssh access to and instead I have to issue linux commands via a web interface (cpanel). It just about works for unpacking the files and I can do the equivalent of './configure', 'make', 'make install' for both libgd and gnuplot but I can't get gnuplot to recognise that libgd has been installed on this system so the gnuplot configure step keeps saying things like 'jpeg terminal: no (requires libgd with jpeg support)'. I have seen posts elsewhere about setting LDFLAGS in the makefile so that it picks up the libgd library but its all a bit beyond me, sorry. Any clues very much appreciated.
