+you need the following libraries installed on your system.
+
+ cgilib-0.5.tar.gz
+ freetype-2.1.5.tar.gz
+ libart_lgpl-2.3.16.tar.gz
+ libpng-1.2.5.tar.gz
+ zlib-1.2.1.tar.gz
+
+you can either get these libraries directly from their original sites
+or you can get copies from
+
+ http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/pub/libs
+
+the configure program will try to use the libraries with out adding any extra
+flags apart from the ones defined in CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS. If this does not
+work it will try to get information from pkgconfig.
+
+If your libraries are not installed in standard places and you do not have
+pkgconfig support, then you may want to set CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS to help
+configure while it tries to find the libraries.
+
+ env CPPFLAGS="-I/scratch/oetiker/cgilib-0.5 \
+ -I/scratch/oetiker/libs/include/libart-2.0 \
+ -I/scratch/oetiker/libs/include \
+ -I/scratch/oetiker/libs/include/freetype2" \
+ LDFLAGS="-L/scratch/oetiker/libs/lib -R/scratch/oetiker/libs/lib \
+ -L/scratch/oetiker/cgilib-0.5" ./configure
