It looks to me like the above libraries aren't necessary for aterm to
build, but `afterimage-config --libs` thinks they are. I can build
aterm with just -lAfterImage -lAfterBase.

Therefore I suggest that afterimage-config be fixed to not pull in the
unnecessary libraries like that. Does that seem reasonable? Meanwhile,
if afterimage-config hasn't been fixed in a week, I'll upload an aterm
package with a temporary workaround.

Regards,
