gdk_imlib2

For those of us who have legacy software, the deprecation of gdk_imlib in gtk+-2.0 and gtk+-2.0 is a headache. It would be a lot quicker to port legacy software packages like this if gdk_imlib were available. This package, is a port of gdk-imlib to gtk+-2.0 which preserves all the feature of the original (gtk+-1.2) libraries. It means that if you have old graphics code you don't have to waste time re-writing it using GdkPixbuf or Cairo surfaces. Of course, we are not advocating using this library for new code, but you can if you prefer to use the gdk_imlib API for image loading & manipulation.
