reading the manuals should help you.

Try to do an "apt-cache search libgd" and check out the package names that are found there. Then install the package of your choice by running "apt-get install $package_of_your_choice" ...

I have Run the command "apt-get install libgd2" to install the gd library but I am still getting the same problem when installing photoshare. Is there any other commands I need to run? I did what the reply said but same thing.......Can anyone help please.

I did an:
apt-get install php4-gd4, and it seems to have worked, pending restarts.
Maybe try that instead.
