retitle 812657 feh: FTBFS: test failure when preloading gif images
thanks

Hi,

The missing mandoc binary is not the issue here, the test expects that and
silently passes. However, some library difference between stable and unstable
causes the gif preload / list test to fail on Debian unstable, while it works
fine on Debian stable. So the test failure is caused by an actual bug.

I can reproduce the problem on my systems and hope to have a fix ready soon.
