Yes, that's what I typically do on RHEL 6. Apparently Red Hat forgot to put giflib-devel into RHEL 6. See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=659854 > I used "/home/kmodi/usr_local/6" as prefix when installing giflib. Welcome to package configuration hell. Rather than fiddle with all those settings (something I've never done for RHEL 6) you may find it simpler to install a properly-configured giflib. See: http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=giflib-devel and look for "CentOS 6".
