bzr.exe has PyQt4 libs bundled inside of version 4.4.x (I don't know
exact version). In Qt 4.4.x series support for many image formats (gif,
ico, jpeg, scg, tiff) provided by plugins. These plugins currently is
not packaged to bzr.exe unfortunately, so QBzr lacks this support (it
can understand only built-in image formats, e.g. png, bmp).
To enable image support you need to place directory with image plugins
(named "imageformats") right into the folder where bzr.exe installed
(e.g. as C:\Program Files\Bazaar\imageformats). And then support for
jpeg/gif will work.
John, as I could see you already build 1.16 final installer, so this
recipe is a bit late. Is it possible to have imageformats plugins in the
next release? I can provide a patch to copy these plugins as part of
py2exe action. The size of folder with plugins is about 7MB. I think
they will increase the size of installer on 2-3MB.
