Package: libgif7
Version: 5.2.1-1
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Control: forwarded -1 https://sourceforge.net/p/giflib/bugs/142/

Hello,

the new libgif removes multiple symbols from its public API (and
ABI)[1]. One of the removals (GifQuantizeBuffer) causes breakage in
exactimage, mplayer-gui, mplayer, qutemol and xplanet.

This is a tracking bug, I have already reported this upstream.

cu Andreas
