Blackout has a gif2raw that's available as binary-only. The documentation indicates that source code is NOT available for gif2raw, so I separated this out of the zip file, and left the sources and other source-provided binaries. (Ok per the license, which is literally "do what you want".) gif2raw is only needed to create a RAW format image from a GIF image. There are other tools to do that, so I'm not worried about taking gif2raw out of the distribution.
