Why can't Ghostscript find Jasper for JPEG support?

[Mateo1041]

Hello,

I'm trying to install Ghostscript 8.57 on a Plesk 8.0 setup and it looks like Jasper is not being found by default on Fedora Core during installation using ./configure.

checking for local jasper library source... jasper
checking for local jasper configure script... no
checking for local jasper autogen.sh script... configure: error:
Unable to find jasper/src/libjasper/include/jas_config.h,
or generate generate such a file for this system. You will
have to build one by hand, or configure, build and install
the jasper library separately.

You can also pass --without-jasper to configure to disable
JPEG 2000 PDF image support entirely.

So I downloaded Jasper from 1.900.1 from http://www.ece.uvic.ca/~mdadams/jasper/ and ran ./configure, make, and make install. I restarted Apache, but the Ghostscript install still can't find Jasper.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a specific directory I should be running Jasper's ./configure from? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
- Matt

Anyone? No one's heard of this before? Or no one checks these forums? :-(

I ended up asking my web host to do it instead. Looks like they used some kind of RPM method.
