Is that a correct answer?

$ rpm -qpR linuxconf-1.21r5-3mdk.i586.rpm
initscripts >= 5.27
/usr/sbin/groupadd
/etc/services
/bin/mktemp
sh-utils
fileutils
textutils
grep
chkconfig
mandrake-release
pam
/bin/sh

So how can I know it also requires libgd.so?

What's the point of using rpm if the only thing a package can do is spitting
100 error messages, instead of cleanly telling me I need to install gd?

I still think something is wrong in the spec file. A little Requires, maybe?

The proof is that a fresh install did not install gd.

this new linuxconf version has a new dependency on gd, you must install it in
order to get it working.
