Perl and GD have both caused me alot of pain. I'd say forget it untill bugzilla gets
updated, unless you /want/ a wild ride.
I must say however that my trouble was moving from lower (default) to higher (newer
then default) - maybe look on ftp.redhat.com and get older packages? You could aways
install the srouce rpm for gd (rpm -i) edit the spec file to remove "requires perl"
and recompile it with
rpm -ba --target=your_machine_arch /path/to/spec.file
and hope for the best
