Otherwise it would require to maintain a redundant copy of giflib in meta-kde.
Alternative suggestions are welcome.


A grep shows that not many recipes depend on giflib:
-
samuel at s-stirtzel-linux:/work/oe-core/setup-scripts/sources$ grep -r 'giflib' *
meta-java/recipes-core/openjdk/openjdk-6-common.inc:DEPENDS = "giflib
libpng jpeg cups \
meta-java/recipes-core/icedtea/icedtea6-native.inc:
freetype-native zlib-native giflib-native jpeg-native \
meta-kde/recipes-kde-base/kdelibs4_git.bb:DEPENDS = "automoc4-native
strigi libdbusmenu-qt soprano shared-desktop-ontologies dbus giflib
attica jpeg libpng bzip2 libpcre perl-native"
meta-openembedded/meta-efl/recipes-efl/efl/evas.inc:DEPENDS = "librsvg
eina eet freetype jpeg libpng virtual/libx11 libxext libxrender
fontconfig libfribidi giflib"
-

Any reason against the move?
