 not seen any upstream work in a long time, and I don't think it
 works with modern versions of GCC.
 
 I will upload a fixed version or file a removal request by
 sometime this weekend.

 Thanks.

I submitted a removal request bug report against ftp.debian.org.
It is CC'd to you, so you should see it shortly.

 Do you think you'll be able to take a look at this soon?  gccchecker
 is now the only package in Debian [1] which required the old libgd-gif
 which has been orphaned for over 2.5 years.  libgd-gif was a fork of
 libgd v1 to add GIF support; libgd 2 has GIF support again (since the
 patent expired) and is supported upstream.

 I'd really like to get libgd-gif removed from the archive soon so it
 would be great it you could take a look at this.

Oh.  Thanks for the reminder.  I think that, in fact, it might be
time to remove gccchecker entirely.  valgrind is an easier-to-use
replacement that works at least as well in practice.  Checker has
not seen any upstream work in a long time, and I don't think it
works with modern versions of GCC.

I will upload a fixed version or file a removal request by
