it means that you have a custom version of gd installed in your library
search path, and this version is being found before the debian version.
i don't know if you have it there for a reason... if you don't then the
fix is simple and you can just remove the custom libraries (which look
to be older anyway).  

if you do need the libraries, then you'll need to fiddle around with
ld.so.conf/LD_PRELOAD/LD_LIBRARY_PATH in some way so that the programs
the need the old version don't interfere with the programs that need the
new version.
