I could not get pdf2swf to install on
a fully patched registered version of RHEL5. However, on an unpatched,
fresh install of RHEL5 I was able to get pdf2swf installed with no trouble.
This was my experience installing swftools-0.8.1.
This is the error which prevented pdf2swf from being installed

See `config.log' for more details.
I don't know but I suspect it's the
compiler? (maybe one of the standard libraries?)

I had first installed the versions of

did not complain about missing freetype. On the unpatched RHEL5 install
I did not install freetype-devel from the disks.
