Since koffice is modular, its import/export filters are plugins that can be added and removed without affecting the operation of the programs themselves. So couldn't this filter be provided as an add-on package? It could go in universe, so it could depend on graphicsmagick without needing graphicsmagick to get into main first.
I'd volunteer to do this myself if I knew how, but I don't, so I'll just leave a record of my thoughts here in case someone with the right skills would be kind enough to consider the idea. :) (Note that it's not just gif support that's in question here: the graphicsmagick filter also provides support for other common formats like bmp and xcf.) -- Krita 1.6 in Edgy doen't open gifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71711 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
