Re: GQview 2.0.2 and 2.1.2 released.

I've updated pkgsrc/graphics/gqview-devel and it builds and runs ok on
NetBSD-current (i386).

I have two odd behaviors:

Starting up gqview in an empty directory takes a lot of CPU time.  I
immediately hit ^Q when the window appeared.

gdt 28 ~/FOO > time gqview 
GQview 2.1.2, This is a beta release.

(gqview:552): Gdk-WARNING **: shmget failed: error 12 (Cannot allocate memory)
Unable to write history lists to: /home/gdt/.gqview/history

real    0m6.447s
user    0m5.301s
sys     0m0.531s

This did not happen to me with 2.1.1.



The other problem is that I have thumbnails set to cache thumbnails,
not to use shared thumbnail cache, and to use .thumbnails.  For
various reasons, I don't want thumbnails left in my home directory,
particularly when viewing images that are in a different filesystem.
(In general, I think it's a security bug to leave a thumbnail in a
different filesystem.)  The pan view seems to object to this.  It
would be nice if it used the same thumb size as was normally
generated.  I suspect the problem here is that the
.thumbnails/image.jpg.png format doesn't have a way to store multiple
sizes.


Perhaps a reasonable solution would be to have an option to decline to
store thumbs in ~/.thumbails or ~/.gqview/.thumbnails for images on a
different filesystem, falling back to .thumbnails in the image
directory in that case.
