Try installing GD as a RubyGem.  From the command line, run 'gem install gd=
2
--remote'  That will download the GD2 libraries for Ruby and auto-install
them in their correct place.  I have had problems with attempting to
manually install libraries, and installing them as a RubyGem has worked
every time. (I'm assuming that GD and GD2 aren't completely unrelated
libraries with frustratingly similar names)
