I tried rebuilding gqview and feh with no success. feh complains about no imlib support for jpegs so I rebuild imlib, which didn't help. Before going to bed I started a full world rebuild. I'll reboot after that to ensure I pick up new shared libraries and we'll see what happens. This violates the principle of least surprise though. I am finding this about gentoo. On FreeBSD I could disable X11 support, but it's on by default. I agree with that. On gentoo I have to explicitely enable jpg support?? Why the hell would I not want it? I find that needlessly difficult. The default should be the common case, not the uncommon one. Mike -- Michael P.
