[EMBOSS] EMBOSS 5.0.0 compilation fails on RedHat ver 9.0 (GD error)?

[Chenggang Zhang]

Dear EMBOSS maintainer,

I have the similary question as Christian reported below. However, even if I have updated the GD to version 2.0.28 or 2.0.35, I still failed to install the EMBOSS5 in my computer (uname information: Linux 2.4.20-8smp #1 SMP Thu Mar 13 17:45:54 EST 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux, RedHat ver 9.0). The error information was attached below. Could you please tell me how to solve this question?

Dear Christian,

Support for GIF was restored in gd 2.0.28 on July 21st, 2004. So, as
mentioned in the announcement, just install an up-to-date gd2 on SLES 9
and the compilation will work.

I've updated the development version of README to reflect this.

Alan
