I don't know if it installs gd or gd2 so you have to try.

I've been posting on the ubuntu forums and I have found that:
apt-get install php4-gd
only installs gd you have to do something like
apt-get install php4-gd2
to get the gd2.
still habent been able to get gd2 running yet though.

Remove GD and install GD2. That may help.

I found this error:
PHP Warning: Unknown(): Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php4/20050606/gd.so' - /usr/lib/php4/20050606/gd.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
I just looked through my synaptic and found i didn't have php4-gd and php5-gd installed so i installed those and restarted apache now gd shows up
