26 Well, this is what I did:
27
28 While I still had libubgif, I copied these files to a safe place:
29 libungif.a libungif.la libungif.so libungif.so.4
30 libungif.so.4.1.3 ungif.README
31
32 ...then I humoured portage by unmerging libubgif and emerging
33 giflib.
34
35 After that I copied the saved libungif files to /usr/lib/ and now
36 kuickshow works again. So far nothing broke.
