I used the RH 9.0 RPMs.  Didn't find them.
I snarfed the IM 5.5.6 from ImageMagick.org - they crapped out during
the make install, but the libraries were in there.  Now, I get the Tiger
Maps, but I can't set the background color.I'll have to try to install
IM 5.5.6 again and investigate what made it crap out.  That'll probably
send me down yet another undomesticated waterfowl pursuance exercise.

Installed the RPMs, did ldconfig.  configure didn't file ImageWrite in
-lMagick.

I'll do that when I get a chance.  It'll be a while.  My Igate is up, at
least.

I also had installed the libgeotif stuff, suppsedly sucessfully. 
configure didn't find it, either.  I wonder if RH9 has a problem in
library management.
