That's what I'm going to do then. |

libungif is now being removed from the true to honor the better giflib |
| 26 |
with expired LWZ patent. On this friday, I will be doing the dep |
| 27 |
adjustments in the tree. I will also be creating a bug to track issues |
| 28 |
with giflib not working with certain programs. I highly doubt this |
| 29 |
however, and anticipate a rather clean movement (knock on wood :|). |
| 30 |
Rember: this Friday, you have been warned. Speak now or forever hold |
| 31 |
your peace :P. |
