[Bug 42081] Re: Cannot execute kuickshow

[Carsten Pfeiffer]

Thanks for the info. Imlib2 does not really duplicate functionality of
Imlib1, though. The latter is mostly about loading, rendering and
transforming images while the former is mostly about animations.

I did port KuickShow to Imlib2 once. I even contributed to Imlib2 to make that possible at all. And I threw that port away, because
- Imlib2 is slower than Imlib1
- Imlib2 provides a different functionality (e.g. animations instead of image transformations like rotating, brightness, gamma adjustments)

So Imlib1 and Imlib2 are really complementary instead of duplication.
