To put what Otavio is asking in different words, couldn't we have a generic "gtk test" image which would work with both directfb and x11? I think the problem is that such an image gets tricky to construct as X requires a lot of extras such as an xserver, a general directfb image has a much simpler content and is quite a different entity. I can therefore see why a separate image has been created and whilst I agree its not ideal, I think the alternatives are worse. I think Yan's patch with the anonymous python is along the right lines but please lookup SkipPackage() instead of using getpid and kill!
