GD Library versions and Ubuntu
I'd been having a problem with GD being out of date on a LAMP installation on Ubuntu. This was odd because the installation is the latest (9.10) release. After some digging, it would seem that in Ubuntu PHP5 is not compiled with the version of GD that comes bundled with PHP!
There's a really helpful article explaining how to recompile PHP5 with support for the latest version of GD here. You'll probably need to update the directories and file names depending on the release you're using but it worked for me.
