Description aardvark 2003-07-10 01:57:36 UTC
An emerge sync + emerge -Up world revealed to me that there was a new s-c to be 
emerged. I went ahead and emerged. In this version however, image displaying is 
broken, i.e. not possible, even by pressing a certain letter (see snapshot) 
 
If I recall correctly it should be enabled when the USE flag "xface" is defined. See the 
screenshot for an illustration  the problem. 
 
USE flags used (from /var/db/pkg/net-mail/sylpheed-claws-0.9.0-r1/USE):  
x86 oss 3dnow apm avi crypt cups encode gif jpeg kde libg++ libwww mikmod mmx 
mpeg ncurses nls pdflib png quicktime spell truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib gtkhtml gdbm 
berkdb slang readline arts bonobo svga tcltk java guile X sdl tcpd pam ssl perl python 
esd imlib oggvorbis gnome gtk qt motif opengl mozilla gphoto2 cdr scanner 
artswrappersuid dnd dvd evo fax flash matrox moznoirc moznomail oav pic samba sis 
tiff usb wmf xface xosd -gpm 
 
As you can see both gtkhtml and xfce are present. 
 
 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge current/stable sylpheed-claws 
2.open a mail with an image attached 
3. 
Actual Results:  
No image can be shown in s-c. 

Expected Results:  
Immediate image showing or the option to press 'v'

Do you have the image plugin loaded ? The xface USE flag is only for xface header support, nothing to do with general image support.
Comment 2 aardvark 2003-07-12 13:37:08 UTC
Ok, I would like to load a plugin, but when I open the plug-in dialog (which is new to me 
as image viewing has always worked for me as long as I had xface in the useflag.. 
really..  i believe) I do not have any options to choose from.  I did however figure out 
that the plug-in where located in /usr/lib/sylpheed-claws/plugins and found the plugin i 
needed for image display. I guess the change lies with the sylpheed guys and the 
gentoo ebuild maker did his jub just fine. Maybe an extra notice at the end of the ebuild 
pointing to the plug ins dir would be nice. 
 
Oh well, it works again!

I guess I need to change the message at the end of the ebuild...it says there is a new plugin structure and wherre to look for the spamassassin plugin...I'll try and make it more clear I guess.
