->  Yep, now you have to start panel to configure Imlib, but can't start panel before
->  Imlib is configured :)

no you don't. you just run imlib_config. it doesnt require the panel or
gnome. if ti segfaults edit yer ~/.imrc or syste, /usr/etc/imrc (or
/usr/local/etc/imrc depending on where you installed) by hand.
