AW: AW: [Typo3-debian] Debian PHP4-GD2 without gif support, what can i do?

[Alexander Schories]

Hello Michael,

thanks for the hint: I will now update the solution again and mention that
now of course directly the source from it`s origin - means boutell.com - can
be used for this solution. No more real need for patches / patched versions.

Thank you once again!
