Exactly what is it about Debian that makes you think we won't have xv?

xv is one of the few constants in the universe. This is probably the reason
that bsetbg defaults to using it to do what it does.
You *were* aware that bsetbg was a wrapper, right? ^_^

The Other problem is that i've encountered is that almost all of the
themes do not use bsetbg to set the background image. Most of them use xv.
This is a problem for me as I dont have it installed, and debian users
will not have this application either. Is the use of bsetbg mentioned in
the themeing conventions?
