Edi, Thanks for the reply. Problem solved! The key was to run export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH before building libgd.so. That said, I still don't understand what's going on. /usr/local/lib is in /etc/ld.so.conf. I thought that was supposed to suffice... Oh well. Doesn't matter. I'm just so darned happy it's working.

gdImageCreateFromJpeg is defined in libgd.so so it seems that libgd.so is not found. Does it help if you do something like export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH before you start your Lisp compiler (assuming that on your system libgd.so is in /usr/local/lib)? Did you build libgd.so yourself? If not, where did you get it from and how did you install it? Otherwise, it might also be helpful if you could give us information about which Lisp you are using, which Linux distro, and so on. Cheers, Edi.
