imitializing imlib fails

[Richard Black <rblack@cyberus.ca>]

Hi all

whenever I try to start enlightenment, I get an error message telling me
that it can not initialize imlib (and that this is quite unusual!). 
Also, no gtk based programs don't work.

I'm not sure what to do :-(  Every thing was working okay until I
upgraded imlib to 1.9.3-3 a few weeks ago.  But alas, no longer.

I have tried reinstalling the imlib packages:

imlib-base_1.9.4-3.deb  imlib-progs_1.9.4-3.deb
imlib-dev_1.9.4-3.deb   imlib1_1.9.4-3.deb

but this didn't help

Suggestions would be _greatly_ appreciated.

thanks

Richard
