Can we replace libungif with giflib in fc5? The LZW patent is dead, Unisys specifically says so on their website. The current version of gd shipping with Fedora now supports gif. The cvs version of gnuplot now supports the gif terminal type again using the gd library. The libtiff library in fc4 now has lzw patched back in. I've been using giflib on my system since fc3 (removing libungif and installing giflib in its place, with the shared library symlinks going the other way) and there are absolutely no issues. I'll file a bugzilla on libungif for it, I think I might have already in the past - but are there any other reasons anyone can think of for not going with giflib? giflib is available from same sourceforge location as libungif and being maintained in parallel with libungif. I'm guessing it is only a matter of time before libungif disappears. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
