I'm not currently booted into Ubuntu but in debian:
~$ apt-cache search geotiff
gdal-bin - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library - Utility programs
libgdal-doc - Documentation for the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
libgdal1-1.3.2 - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
libgdal1-1.3.2-dev - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library - Development
files
libimage-exiftool-perl - Library and program to read and write meta
information in multimedia files
python-gdal - Python bindings to the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
qgis - Geographic Information System (GIS)

You might try the same with Ubuntu but you may need to add
universe/multiverse to your /etc/apt/sources.list.  Synaptic has a GUI
interface to expanding your sources.
