On behalf of the QA group, I have been looking at packages which are blocking the removal of libraries currently in the section oldlibs, and icewm is one of them, depending on imlib. With the aim of fixing as many of the depending as possible to pave the way for gradual removal of imlib, I would request you to consider moving to imlib2. imlib2 will be removed from Sqeeze, so this is now release-critical.

(If anyone desires to add imlib2 support it should not be too hard to add it in 1.3 since the code had major cleanups in this area). Thanks a lot for the update. Let's hope one of the suggestions you give is adopted.

With the aim of fixing as many of the depending as possible to pave the way for gradual removal of imlib, I would request you to consider moving to imlib2. Maybe. There is however icewm version 1.3 which uses gdk-pixbuf-xlib instead of imlib1. icewm-1.3 should be completely backward compatible to 1.2, so switching to 1.3 should not be a problem.
