Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libffi4

Currently the shared object libffi.so.4 which is contained in libffi4 is
missing from Intrepid. The removal of this library currently breaks at
least one application. In this case its "glipper".

The dependency breakage with glipper is seen in the file _keybinder.so.
The file is located /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/glipper/keybinder/
directory. You can see the needed dependency if you run the following
command:

ironman:~> objdump 
/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/glipper/keybinder/_keybinder.so -x|grep ffi
  NEEDED               libffi.so.4
