I'll look into this, and fix some other issues with the package on
the way. Currently looking for some source for the swf.

Planning an update of giflib to the current version 5.1.1. Giflib slightly 
changes it's API, requiring soureful changes. There are some options for getting 
giflib5.1 support:


- Look for a newer upstream version, if upstream supports
both giflib4 and giflib5.1. Upload the new package,
and close the bug report.

- Patch the code to both use the NEW API. This can be done using
#if GIFLIB_MAJOR >= 5

#else

#endif
Please upload the package, and close the report.

- Unconditionally patch the code, not supporting giflib4 anymore.
Please upload a package to experimental once giflib5 hits
experimental.

For the latter two options, please see a patch at
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/222931742/swftools_0.9.2%2Bgit20130725-2build2_0.9.2%2Bgit20130725-2ubuntu1.diff.gz

To test your changes before giflib5 is found in experimental, please use

deb https://people.debian.org/~doko/tmp/giflib5 ./

Thanks, Matthias
