[Bug 1294074] Re: php5-gd package missing functions (imagerotate etc.)

** Description changed:

  There appears to be several people online reporting issues with php5-gd
  in Debian & Ubuntu which are complaining about missing functions.  I
  felt that it was worth captuing as this may be a packaging issue, I've
  tested on 14.04 latest and I can replicate the issue... it is fine on
  RedHat however, for example.
  
  To quote some existing posts on the subject:-
  
  "The version Ubuntu uses misses some functions like imagerotate and
  imageantialias, which are needed by an increasing number of software
  projects."
  
  The issue can be replicated as follows:-
  
- "Make sure you have php5-cli, php5-gd, rpm and mc installed.
+ "Make sure you have php5-cli, php5-gd.
  
  First, check if you even have a problem. On the commandline type:
  php -r "var_dump(function_exists('imageantialias'));"
  This will return bool(false) if you are missing the function imageantialias(), and bool(true) if the function is pressent."
