[Pkg-squeak-devel] Bug#744289: scratch: Impossible importing or using jpeg files

mmm, I don't think compiling squeak-vm against the ancient libjpeg
sources bundled with squeak sources instead system libjpeg is a good
idea.
Instead of it, the JPEGReaderPlugin should be fixed to work correctly
with a modern jpeg library, but I don't feel with the  needed time
and/or knowledge to fix that currently. I'm afraid I've forgotten most
of my Smalltalk skills in the last years :(

Regards.
