How do you enable GD in PHP when installing via RPM?

Question

We are working on a client's sever that has PHP running without GD. We would like to enable GD support in PHP on that machine. What is the most straightforward way to enable GD. Is there a way to do it via RPM?

Thanks!

Update:

Currently running:

RedHat Enterprise Linux Server version 5.3 Using RPM

Solution 1

Typically in most modern packages this is done by installing the php-gd package with your package manager.

for RHEL 5.3 try:

yum install php5-gd

Solution 2

[root@a-sys1 ~]# yum search "php" | grep -i gd
php-gd.i386 : A module for PHP applications for using the gd graphics library

[root@a-sys1 ~]# yum install php-gd
Loading "dellsysidplugin2" plugin
etc etc
