The current maintainer of giflib, Larry Daffner, has orphaned this
package. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it --
retitle this bug from 'O:' to 'ITA:', fix the outstanding bugs and
upload a new version with your name in the Maintainer: field and a
* New maintainer (Closes: #thisbug)

Some information about this package:

Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.2-2), xlibs (>= 4.0.1-11)
Conflicts: libgif3g, libgif2, libungif3g

Description: shared library for GIF images (runtime lib)
This is a shared library for working with GIF images.
.
The Graphics Interchange Format(c) specification is the copyrighted
property of CompuServe Incorporated. Unfortunately, it used LZW
compression for compressed GIFs, which is covered by a patent held
by Unisys. As this package existed before UniSys's lawyeritis attack
of New Years' Day 1995, it is grandfathered in under their license
terms and you do not have to pay fees for using it.
.
Alternatively, you may choose to install the libungif package which
is available in the main Debian distribution. The libungif package
is a variant of giflib with the offending patented LZW compression
code snipped out, so it can only save uncompressed GIFs.
> I only have 2 packages, giflib, which hasn't been updated in a long
> time for philosophical reasons, but I couldn't get enough momentum
> to get removed, and xscreensaver. Someone please give them good
> homes.
