Problem:
Each time that imlib_load_image() is called, in turn, each loader
library is called. The loader library for bz2 files opens a temporary
file "/tmp/imlib2_loader_bz2-XXXXXX" and then almost immediately deletes
it. But is never closes the tempfile so lsof will show:
test-bin 28356 jwolf 3u REG 3,2 0 213317
/tmp/imlib2_loader_bz2-55VbCn (deleted)
If you are calling imlib_load_image() many times in a loop -- say to
convert a bunch of images -- you will end up with a new open filehandle
to a deleted file each iteration. After 1024 iterations you run out of
filehandles. (at the default ulimit)
Solution (maybe):
--- src/modules/loaders/loader_bz2.c.orig 2005-03-24 15:54:50.541223640

+++ src/modules/loaders/loader_bz2.c 2005-03-24 15:54:50.541223640 -0800

return 0;
if (!(fp = fopen (im->real_file, "rb"))) {
+ close (dest);
unlink (tmp);
return 0;
}
I've tested this once and it seemed to fix the problem, but I'm not 100%
certain that the new bz2.so was being called by imlib2.
