Enable built-in gdk-pixbuf loaders even if USE_GMODULE
Last modified: 2010-07-10 04:05:50 UTC
Currently built-in gdk-pixbuf loaders are possible only when dynamic module loading is disabled (or doesn't work, which isn't very likely though). The below patch makes it possible to have built-in gdk-pixbuf loaders always. This would be desireable at least on Win32 as one relatively common error scenario there is to screw up an installation by misplacing the gdk-pixbuf.loaders file.

There is an alternate implementation (not including the configure stuff) in bug #135704, maybe together we can do the "clean implementation" Owen was not opposed to there ;)
Well, I think my patch here is a "clean implementation", what else did you expect me to say ;) (My patch lacks any makefile.msc changes, though.) Including the configure.in and Makefile.am changes is important for people to be able to check it out and maybe use it also on Unix (and mingw).
I think your patch is fine, feel free to commit it.
OK, committed to HEAD. I assume you don't want this in the stable branch?
Hans, you probably want to apply the makefile.msc changes from #135704 now.

Re comment 6: Yes, lets keep it head-only. Its pretty clearly a new feature...
