Dear Siegfried, http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Downloads/ActivePerl/PPM/Repository
Look at the bottom of the page: The GD module currently isn't available in the ActiveState PPM repository. This is because it is very difficult to build and is not suitable for ActiveState's automated build system, as it requires quite a external libraries. PPMs for the GD module can be found in other repositories and installed as follows: ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/GD.ppd This will install the GD PPM from the University of Winnipeg's version 5.8 PPM repository. For the 5.6 PPM repository, use: ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/GD.ppd __END__ Talk about pain! I couldn't install it due to (Bad protocol 'tcp') messages. You don't mention anything like that, so maybe... just maybe you'll get GD installed.
