[lug] Where is libgd.so.1?

[Andrew Diederich]

I've been trying to run a product that uses php3 (rightnow web 3.2, if that
matters) and every time I hit the php pages I get a "Premature end of script
headers: /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/ndts.cfg/php
php: error in loading shared libraries
libgd.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

Now, the php file in the message is an executable, and most likely compiled
on a Red Hat 6.1/6.2 box.  I was able to find the referenced libgd.so.1 file
on a Red Hat 6.1 box I have lying about, and it is part of either gd-1.3 or
gd-devel 1.3.  I believe the 1.3 version of gd is still back in the gif
days, not the current png style.  On my SuSE 6.1 box I have libgd-1.2 (gif
style), and on my 6.4 box I have libgd-1.7.3 (png style).

So, I guess what I need is whatever package that installs the
/usr/lib/libgd.so.1 stuff, the way to turn /usr/lib/libgd.a into an so file,
or where I can get the tarball for the current (or possibly old) libgd
sources so I can compile and install the so stuff.  Any ideas?
