I am not sure I understand the discussion about 'RGB support' but I
will comment on this.
I would very much like to have something link SciKarl on Linux. I
imagine something that would install under it's own directory tree (/
usr/local/pdl or ~/pdl) where you would source a set up file and then
it would all work. It's on my mental list of round tuits but being a
busy Prof. I am can not predict when if ever i could find some time to
play with this!
If there are any volunteers I'd be happy to discuss and give
gratuitous advice.
One thing that is unclear to me is whether a single binary build could
serve all of linux given the diversity. - Any comments?

The SciKarl configuration, although only deployed on Macs as I
understand it, is a good start. I'd make sure a similar build can be
replicated on the target platforms (i586, x86_64, darwin ppc/intel,
cygwin, bsd's, etc), first building a static collection of
interdependent external libraries. This is much easier done if these
external libraries use the GNU autotools (if not, one can always add
it and contribute it upstream). Once the SciKarl collection is in
place, one can add the additional libraries and work your way up to
completeness. I'd be willing to help, but it may not be until Spring I
can find some time to dedicate to it. When is the next scheduled PDL
release?
