Error installing GD Toolkit

Question

I have been trying to install the GD toolkit on my Ubuntu VM. The operation is simple enough:

sudo apt-get install php5-gd

However, when I run this, I get a 404 (Not Found error) for a package:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  php5-gd
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
3 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 38.8 kB of archives.
After this operation, 163 kB of additional disk space will be used.

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

Has anyone encountered this problem?

Did you try "sudo apt-get update" before trying to install GD library? — user1190992, Jul 20 '12 at 14:57

Got the answer from user1190992 apt-get was simply out of date....

This command did the trick:

sudo apt-get update
