Here's something possibly helpful planetscape posted in the CB: Installing Modules.

While I'm afraid I simply don't recall details such as the system on which you are trying to install GD::whatever (I stopped reading your CB sends once it became obvious you were not listening to the advice you were being given by bart, runrig, and others), I will nevertheless try to recap that advice, in the hopes that you are listening now.

1. Install libgd. To install libgd, follow the instructions here.
2. Install GD::whatever. Use Bundle::CPAN or whatever is appropriate for your system to actually install GD::whatever. As was pointed out in the CB and elsewhere, simply copying .pm modules to various and random "error locations" is insufficient to actually install modules that require compilation. Hint: GD::whatever requires compilation.
3. If you are still having problems, please read the excellent and copious help found in our fabulous Tutorials section, specifically Installing Modules.

Recently,i was trying to install software circos, and stuck in the problem of installing GD modules. Actually, I have tried install the GD modules as following:

$cpanm GD
--> Working on GD
Fetching http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/L/LD/LDS/GD-2.56.tar.gz ... OK

! Configure failed for GD-2.56. See /home/clad/.cpanm/work/1448933575.
+20068/build.log for details.

Then i checked the build.log and found that libgd 2.0.28 or higher was needed.

Thus, i installed the libgd. Following the README.TXT:

1. Type './configure'
2. Type 'make install'
[download]

Once again, i got another problem.

$make install
Making install in src
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/clad/zzx/software/libgd-2.1.1/src'
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/clad/zzx/software/libgd-2.1.1/src'

make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/clad/zzx/software/libgd-2.1.1/src'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
[download]

Then, i tried to used sources fetched from git and ran bootstrap.sh. The error message was "Can't find naturaldocs; not generating user manual."

I was really confused about what to do now.

I really appreciate it if you could spare some time and help me out.

Best regards.

Following your advice i always got the error message as following:

make2: Entering directory `/home/clad/zzx/software/libgd-2.1.1/src'
