I thought we disscussed the media-libs issue. We will change it but for now |
| 26 |
I |
| 27 |
think we should place such stuff to media-libs because the other image libs |
| 28 |
are in there too. |
| 29 |
True imagemagick and gimp provide libs too but in opposit to netpbm they |
| 30 |
offer a GUI interface |
| 31 |
that's why they are in media-gfx. |
