[Bioperl-l] Problem with GD.pm version 2.35

This happens when there is a mismatch between the compiled (.so) portion of
GD and the perl (.pm) version. Typically it occurs when you have installed
GD incorrectly by, e.g., copying the .pm file into position rather than
using the make file.

Solution: Uninstall old versions of GD by manually finding all occurrences
of GD.so and GD.pm and removing them. Then reinstall the correct way.
