Re: [XaraXtreme-dev] Commit Complete

Yes, I was thinking much the same thing last night.

Luke: Do you have anything against me adding -lpng -ljpeg to the end  
of XaraLX_LDFLAGS, i.e. after the contents of WX_LIBS has been  
expanded, to try to ensure that the build will find png and jpeg libs  
whether they are in wxWidgets or not? That wouldn't prevent the link  
working for other people would it?
