    Version: 2.3.3-12
    Severity: important

    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.
