Dear Maintainer,
libgd-dev package declares a dependency on base-files, and it does it in
a way that looks unintentional too, due to the alternatives:
libavif-dev | base-files
libheif-dev | base-files
Neither libavif-dev nor libheif-dev are in any way related to
base-files. base-files is an essential package present on all debian
systems.
Please remove the unnecessary dependency on base-files. Patch attached.
Thanks.
