[R] png and jpeg libs for Solaris

[Don MacQueen]

I'm also having trouble installing R 1.3.1 on Solaris and getting png 
and jpeg support.
It looks like perhaps the png and jpeg libraries I installed weren't 
built with all the support R needs.
If that's the case I'd appreciate confirmation. Or perhaps there's 
something else I can do?
(with all the details I've included this message is rather long)

Thanks

I did make clean and removed config.cache before starting.

./configure reports:

checking for jpeglib.h... yes
checking if jpeglib version >= 6b... yes
checking for jpeg_destroy_compress in -ljpeg... no
checking for main in -lz... yes
checking for png.h... yes
checking if libpng version >= 1.0.5... yes
checking for png_create_write_struct in -lpng... no
checking for XDR support... yes
checking for gzopen in -lz... yes
checking for zlib.h... yes
checking if zlib version >= 1.1.3... yes

But:

I have the png and jpeg libraries in a non-standard location, due to 
the peculiarities of our system. So I've edited config.site
   CPPFLAGS="-I/erd/statistic/apps/R/libs-2.7/include"
   LIBS="-L/erd/statistic/apps/R/libs-2.7/lib"
and this was successful for readline and libz support (I put the 
readline and libz libraries there also)

./configure also reports this:

and the "nm" command on libpng.a confirms that those symbols are 
undefined. Do I just have a libpng that was built without everything 
R needs, or might there be something else?

configure's report on jpeg looks a little different
