Well, I solved that with a wild hunch. I just did a [rm -rf ~/.Eterm],
and... quite magically at the next startup, the errors were gone.

I had the same problem. I have installed the following packages regarding
Imlib :-

        imlib2-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-devel-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-loader_jpeg-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-filters-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-loader_gif-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-loader_png-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-loader_xpm-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-loader_bmp-1.0.6-1
        imlib2-loader_tiff-1.0.6-1

Even then, the problem persisted. Then I did the following steps:-

i) Ran "ldconfig"
ii) In the Eterm source pkg, "configure --with-imlib2=/usr/lib" (your dir
containing imlib)
iii) then compiled and reinstalled the pkg.

This solved the problem. Hope this works for ya.
