I'm setting up a Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS server at work for a client who plans to install something called "Stori" (an Oracle-ish thing, stori.orapub.com). The requirements FAQ on that site is vague, saying "You can install our product on any Linux server." Okay, so what else? "You will need the gd package; do rpm -q gd to ensure it's installed." That's for a Red Hat-derived distro presumably, so what's the equivalent for Debian/Ubuntu? The only package I found was php5-gd, which seems like overkill as it brings in a ton of other stuff. Is gd installed by default in Ubuntu 10.04?
Look at the deps it's trying to bring it, it'll tell you the names of the packages. (see http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-linux-install-or-add-php-gd-support-to-a... an example)
Looks like libgd-* and libgd2-* are what you need.

Most likely looking for the package libgd2-xxx.
dpkg shows I have libgd2-dev on a headless 12.04 system.

I have no idea if it would be there by default, but you could try running "locate /libgd." on your system to see if the library files are installed. (BTW, on an Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS system here, they were already installed, but then this system has PHP and a bunch of support packages for a web site. The package name for gd on this Ubuntu distro is "libgd2-xpm".)

On RHEL 5 & 6, the "gd" package installs a single library (libgd.so.2.0.0, though the actual package version is 2.0.33 or 2.0.35) and related docs, so I think all you'd need to do is run "ls -l /usr/lib*/libgd.so*" to see if it's there already. If it's not there on the Ubuntu system, then it's a matter of finding and installing the right package. Searching online suggests these commands might do the trick: "sudo apt-cache search libgd" to find it, and something like "sudo apt-get install libgd2" to install it (though the actual package name may differ). There are probably any number of packages you could install that would drag in the library as a dependency, so there are many ways to get it installed, but I imagine you're looking for the minimal set. As Gilbert suggested, libgd2-xpm may well be just that.

Oh, there it is. I tried that before, but I must have missed seeing the libgd2-xpm.
I ended up going with this:
