Slight correction: 80n spotted the bug, I just proved it was in the
GD version ;)

I'm running Debian testing, and found that you need to install the
libgd-gd2-perl package, rather than libgd-perl. If you do

  $ perl -e 'use GD;   GD::Image->trueColor(1);'
  Can't locate object method "trueColor" via package "GD::Image" at -e line 1.

Then you have got the wrong version. If that returns with no error, then it is
good to go (with the latest tilesGen.pl - thanks deelkar).
