Imlib2 docs

I doubt that anyone else misses these, but I was looking and they were not 
installed.  The Imlib2 authors are at fault here, but we could add:

If you want the development docs, install them with the following commands:
install -d /usr/share/doc/imlib2 &&
install -m 644 doc/{*.gif,index.html} /usr/share/doc/imlib2

or not.

If you'll BZ this, I'll make sure it gets done. I like to get as
much package docs installed (or at least give the reader the
opportunity to install them) as possible.

Thanks.

Thanks for the link, duh! I was searching for xroaches 'plural'.  It must have 
been written for a 486/33 or so.  I'm attaching a patch to add a draw timer, 
works much better now.  It was fun, I learned a lot.

Maybe email me personally if it works.

Or should I do some amusement hints?

You should probably send this to the patches project. I'm not
sure that Xroach is currently being considered for BLFS. :-)

Isn't it in there already?  Oh, shit, those are *real*!

I'll see if it's welcome on the hints project, and just host it myself.  I'll 
do a full rewrite, it's really old (X11R5) and most links are dead. If 'hints' 
doesn't want it, let's just leave it as a 'for what it's worth'.

gnome-media requirements

Hey, blfs authors... just wanted to let you know that gst-plugins is a
required package to build gnome-media but it's listed as optional.  When
you run the configure script for gnome-media, it complains that it cannot
find gstreamer-gconf and gstreamer-libs, both of which are provided by
gst-plugins.

Good catch!

I goofed up on that one when I reviewed the dependencies for GNOME
packages. GST-Plugins has always been an optional package, since
Blfs-5.1, anyway. In BLFS-5.0, Gstreamer was required and no mention
of GST-Plugins.

Anyway, thanks for the report and I'll change gstreamer to gst-plugins
in the required section, and remove gst-plugins from the optionals.

Fixed. Thanks again for the report.
