the whole lot is unneeded fluff. I have addressed the falback thing long
ago wiht the imrc holding a config for that. all the gnome dependant
stuff is fluf and undesired - just as "gnomifiying" gtk/gdk is. you
will have to maintain this yourself. What was beign done before was
correct. This is not. You also are missing the utils (the imlib config
program and are violating Imlib's prinicpals - that is to be
independant of anything above it. GNOME is high-level. Imlib is
low-level - it is like makeing the kernel require GNOME.
