Oh yeah, English next time please ("export LANG=C"), my internal dutch decoder 
works but is a bit slow.

A minor explanation about the libgig .deb package issue in general: our Debian 
libgig package (including the one your building yourself) is simply 
called "libgig", whereas the ones coming from Debian-related distributions 
are (mostly) called libgig6 ATM, because the Debian folks have the policy to 
postfix the library's package name with the current .so major version (e.g. 
also "libqt3", "libqt4", ... instead of just "libqt"). And the current major 
version of the libgig DLL is 6 (don't confuse that with the release version 
of libgig). They're doing that package name postfixing, so you could install 
and use different versions of the same library on your machine at the same 
time and thus allowing to install and use applications at the same time, 
which depend on different versions of the the same library. Unfortunately 
libgig's current directory layout doesn't support that, because consequently 
you would have to install them in separate directories as well, 
e.g. /usr/lib/libgig6/ like it's done with Qt. So the best overall solution 
would be to fix the directory layout, but this would introduce new problems.

So looking at your output, it seems you still had the libgig version from your 
distribution installed, which creates a conflict with the one you're building 
by yourself, because the Debian packaging system interprets "libgig6" 
and "libgig" as being two separate individual packages, not related to each 
other. Which usually is fine, but the problem however in libgig's current 
case is that both share a couple of same files, so when you try to install / 
upgrade one of the two, dpkg will detect that one would overwrite a file from 
the other package and abort the installation process.

So to fix it on your machine, remove the libgig6 package (which most probably 
will remove other pacakges as well) and it should work fine then:

        apt-get remove libgig6
