Thread: Package gdk-imlib missing from Karmic
i have "binary" application (no deb or source code) requires gdk-imlib.
although package has been available in ubuntu, appears have been dropped karmic (9.10).
http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?su...ords=gdk-imlib
know why has been dropped or if there plans re-introduce later?
ideas on workaround in meantime?
ps. have tried install jaunty (9.04) deb fails due unsatisfied dependencies , don't wish end in "dependency hell"
gratefully received.
i posted question on launchpad , show answer here finds thread later...
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu...question/96201it removed due removal of gtk 1.2 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=522810), it's not going back. options are: (1) ask whoever provided application build new version relies on gtk 2.0; (2) go jaunty system or install jaunty somewhere (dual-boot, vm, chroot); (3) install necessary libraries on karmic system - require installing dependencies (and dependencies of dependencies) of gdk-imlib, can take jaunty release.
