Success! Thank you. Just to spell it out (for anyone else listening in)
you unpack the gtk-bundle, poke the loader & dependencies in the right
places (under lib and bin) and then run gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders. It
executes the new loader to find out what parameters it needs. You can
only write the gdk-pixbuf.loaders file manually if you know what it
needs, guessing won't do.
I'm particularly glad that you remembered all the dependencies because
windows only tells you about the first one it hasn't got, and since I
don't connect to the internet with windows I then have to re-boot into
linux to get it :-)
The new build of Denemo is going up now. Thanks
Richard Shann
