just do: (from memory, should be right)
% ln -s /usr/lib/libgif3g.so.3 /usr/local/lib/libungif.so.3

Hi,
I sent this inquiry to the current maintainer and the wnpp maintainer
but haven't yet received any reply, so I thought I'd ask here.
In a nutshell, the situation is this: There is a package called
binutils-m68k-palmos-coff that is part of a cross-compiler to compile
programs to run on a Palm
It's probably going to stay like that until the upstream kpilot
maintainer fixes the build process, which is a mess at this point. I
spent a couple hours trying to fix it but got nowhere so I will just
leave it as-is at the moment :-)
