Sorry to reply to my onw post - I removed the old libpng (will have to
reinstall it later off my CD since rpm complained I was breaking
dependencies for ghostscirpt and zgv) and imlib still isn't finding it
- I did put it in a "non-standard" place.  How can I tell configure
where to find it?

Thanks,
Dave
