GNU Image Finding Tool

The GNU Image Finding Tool (GIFT) package has not been updated in 7 years. I searched the web and seems that almost nobody packages that tool anymore. The only one I found was in the Debian repository split into several packages. The tdegraphics package installs an option to configure the GIFT in KControl, System Administration. The BUILD_KMRML option controls building that KControl option. Setting BUILD_KMRML=OFF avoids installing the KControl option but also disables mrml support. How much work is required to create a build option so the mrml support is built but not the KControl item? This would tie in somewhat with the KControl overhaul project. Can we use our own dog food and link KControl to a Trinity equivalent mrml app? Do we have any equivalent mrml image indexing tool? Darrell
