#1483 closed defect (fixed)

GTK+-1.2.10 is not a required dependency of Imlib-1.9.15

Description

The book says that Imlib-1.9.15 has the following dependencies:

Imlib Dependencies Required

GTK+-1.2.10, and libungif-4.1.3 or giflib-4.1.3

However, Imlib builds fine without GTK+-1.2.10 and is functional enough for viewing images in w3m in this configuration. Maybe the dependency upon GTK+-1.2.10 should be downgraded to "Recommended". Also please check if those gif libraries are required or only recommended.

Milestone: future6.2
Owner: changed from blfs-book@… to Randy McMurchy
rep_platform: PCAll
Version: d-6.1a-SVN

Noted in the README file:

"Imlib1 now *REQUIRES* libjpeg, libpng, libtiff, and libgif/libungif. If you do not have these libraries, Imlib1 will *NOT* compile."

I'll move GTK to an optional dependency (with a note that it is required if you wish to have an image-loader).

I'll also now have to add libjpeg, libpng and libtiff as required dependencies along with libgif/libungiff.
