These messages are due to the current inability to conditionally load libraries only when they are installed and not when they have been previously installed and now purged. > I got rid of these messages by installing php5-gd, php5-mcrypt and > php5-suhosin.

The problem occurs when they are installed and then removed but not purged. Removed packages have their configuration files left behind as is expected. But these configuration files say to load shared libraries that have been removed. That creates the bug. This has been reported a number of times already but there is not an easy fix available and so the bug remains. I am merging it with the previous bugs reported on this problem. In the meantime you can fix the problem through one of two actions. Either: 1) install the package again (undoing the remove) which will bring the .so library files back onto the system again and silence the error or 2) purge the package which will remove the configuration file too and remove the directive that is trying to load the non-existest .so library file. In other words either 1) apt-get install php5-gd php5-mcrypt php5-suhosin or 2) apt-get purge php5-gd php5-mcrypt php5-suhosin Either of those actions should stop the above errors as a workaround for this bug.
