Hi there. I'm having a hard time to add GD to my dockerfile. I followed your tips but even so I can't install a dependency that requires GD. It says it is still missing. Any ideas?

@arimourao

Hey, have you solved it? Which version of php base image? Exactly 7.2-fpm? Some useful information about how to reproduce your case?

Hey there. Yeah I solved, your Gist here helped me a lot. Thanks for your time.

Thanx! This solved my problems with GD Lib Jpeg Support! After hours of searching through SO.

Thanks, working like a charm!

Thanks, line 26 and 27 worked for me

Line 26 & 27 probably saved 3 hours of googling

I only used lines 26, 27 for my php 7.4 docker and discovered that they needs to be updated to:

RUN docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-freetype=/usr/include/ --with-jpeg=/usr/include/ \
    && docker-php-ext-install gd

--with-freetype instead of --with-freetype-dir

Check out https://www.php.net/manual/en/image.installation.php, it shows all the required parameters for the different image formats.

Thank you! (lines 26,27)
