Description pierre 2007-11-13 20:11:29 UTC 
/usr/bin/urxvt -pixmap '/path/to/background/image.xpm'
(version x11-terms/rxvt-unicode-8.4) now returns
urxvt: "pixmap": unknown or malformed option.
urxvt: "/path/to/background/image.xpm": malformed option.


Reproducible: Always




Comparing the distributions for 8.4 and 8.3, this seems
to be because -pixmap now requires libAfterImage while in 8.3 libXpm
may have been enough:

configure.ac:  AC_DEFINE(XPM_BACKGROUND, 1, Define if you want to have sexy-looking background pixmaps. Needs libXpm or libAfterImage)

has become in 8.4:

configure.ac:  AC_DEFINE(BG_IMAGE_FROM_FILE, 1, Define if you want to have sexy-looking background pixmaps. Needs libAfterImage)

Meanwhile media-libs/libafterimage is not depended by the ebuild and
is masked anyway (don't know why, maybe just not used much).

That's as far as I got. Don't take it for granted that the difference
above is the problem and the entire problem.
I'll probably revert to 8.3 for now.
