When trying to install the Perl Module Images::Imlib2
by hand I get this warning
[ruben@www3 Image-Imlib2-2.03-2]$ perl Makefile.PL
# running Build.PL
You must install the imlib2 library before you can install
Image::Imlib2. You can obtain imlib2 from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/enlightenment/
Alternatively, if you have downloaded and installed imlib2 and this
still will not work, modify the $CONFIG variable inside Build.PL to
point to the imlib2-config program that provides.
This file is not part of the package imlib2
I switched the code of imlib2-config for pkg-config as is recommented in the ChangeLog of Imlib2 ... and the perl compiles and installs but doesn't work
./testimlib.pl
File Exists ==> /home/ruben/20130303_133505.jpg
Image::Imlib2 load error: No loader for file format at ./testimlib.pl line 10.
So in the latest update imlib2 is among the packages being updates. Can I trust that. Is that my fixes in the new package?
pacman -Qi imlib2

it would be nice to either see a diff or an explanation of the update change...especially since it is an upstream change.
