Done The following extra packages will be installed: libgif4 libungif4g The following NEW packages will be installed libgif4 The following packages will be upgraded: imlib11 libungif4g 2 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded. Inst libungif4g [4.1.4-5] (4.1.6-3 Debian:unstable) [] Inst libgif4 (4.1.6-3 Debian:unstable) Inst imlib11 [1.9.15-5] (1.9.15-6 Debian:unstable) Conf libgif4 (4.1.6-3 Debian:unstable) Conf libungif4g (4.1.6-3 Debian:unstable) Conf imlib11 (1.9.15-6 Debian:unstable) That looks as if it should be safe, but I'm not sure.
