283	Consider removing JPG plugin in favor of GBM	Lewis Rosenthal		"I have long used the GBM (Generalised Bitmap Module) plugin, which covers a much wider range of image formats than JPG. As Lucide has issues with ""plugin overlap"" it is necessary to disable the included JPG plugin in order to make full use of the GBM plugin.

It may be time to just remove the JPG plugin from the distribution entirely and point people to the GBM. Frpm the GBM description:

  GBM (Generalised Bitmap Module) is a library for handling many different bitmap file formats. It comes with a set of useful command line tools for doing bitmap manipulations and format conversion. In this version BMP, JPG, JP2, PNG, TIF, PBM, PGM, PPM, PNM, XPM, JBG and RAW support is additionally included.
