Package: libgif4 Version: 4.1.4-1 Severity: important Hi!
I recently discovered that on my testing/unstable system, giflib3g and giflib3g-dev are no longer available from the repository. I tried to upgrade these to libgif4 and libgif-dev, but that broke a lot of dependencies because libgif4 Conflicts: with libungif4g and Replaces: it. However, the package does not have a Provides: attribute for libungif4g, so all packages depending on that will be broken by installing libgif4. I see two solutions to this: - State in the libgif4 package that it Provides: libungif4g - Convince all the other packages' maintainers to depend on libungif4g | libgif4. That would be an awful lot of packages. These packages currently depend on libungif4g: (as reported by aptitude) advi 1.6.0-11 afterstep 2.2.2-2 array-util 1.9-2 aterm 1.0.0-4 aterm-ml 1.0.0-4 cheops-ng 0.2.3-3 driftnet 0.1.6-7 emacs-snapshot 1:20061201-1 emacs-snapshot-gtk 1:20061201-1 emacs21 21.4a+1-1 endeavour2 2.7.1-1 endeavour2 2.7.3-1 fbi 2.05-2 gdal-bin 1.3.2-2 gdk-imlib11 1.9.14-31 gdk-imlib11 1.9.14-32 gfontview 0.5.0-6 gnustep-gui-runtime 0.11.0-2 icewm 1.2.28-4 ida 2.05-1 imlib11 1.9.14-31 imlib11 1.9.14-32 ktoon 0.8-1 kuickshow 4:3.5.5-2 libafterimage0 2.2.2-2 libafterstep1 2.2.2-2 libcamlimages-ocaml 2.20-8 libgdal1-1.3.2 1.3.2-2 libgdiplus 1.1.18-1 libgnustep-gui0.11 0.11.0-2 libimager-perl 0.50-1 libimlib2 1.3.0.0debian1-4 libming-util 1:0.3.0-9+b2 libming-util 1:0.3.0-9+b2 libming0 1:0.3.0-9+b2 libopenscenegraph4 1.2.0-2 libsimage20 1.6.1-2 libswf-perl 1:0.3.0-9+b2 libungif-bin 4.1.4-4 libungif4-dev 4.1.4-4 libwraster3 0.92.0-6 mgp 1.11b-7 motioneye 1.2-3 mozart-gtk 20060615-2 mplayer 1.0~rc1-4 paintlib2c2a 2.6.2-8 paul 0.1.1-6 pixelize 0.9.2-3 pslib1 0.2.7-1 qvwm 1:1.1.12-4 spamprobe 1.4b-2 vice 1.19-1 vice 1.20-1 wallp 0.64-7 xplanet 1.2.0-1.2 xplanet 1.2.0-1.3+b1 xteddy 2.1-1 fontforge 0.0.20061019-1 Would be great if you could find a reasonable way to resolve this situation.
