Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
Confirmed
Status in giflib package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in giflib source package in Xenial:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Ubuntu Xenial Xerus currently ships with giflib 5.1.2-0.2, which is
completely broken.
It fails to read gif images in both libvips and imagemagick.
Please update to 5.1.4-0.2, which is already published in Yakkety Yak.
I have build the 5.1.4-0.2 package on Xenial and can confirm that it
fixes both of the above mentioned problems.
The upstream bug report is: https://sourceforge.net/p/giflib/bugs/94/
And fix release is 5.1.4.
Prepared 5.1.4, test built in the PPA ubuntu-toolchain-r/ppa, and
test-build all rdeps in main (emacs24 libgdiplus libwebp openjdk-8
tracker).
Acceptance criteria: Builds, and tests succeed on all architectures.
