Hm, I'm not sure. I think, the users should be able to decide it. But we
can make configuration of X2Go with libjpeg-turbo be easier. For
example, if user have already installed libjpeg-turbo_1.1.90_i386.deb
from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libjpeg-turbo/files/1.1.90%20%281.2beta1%29/
, agent wrapper can check if directory /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib/ exists
and export it to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I'm not sure that we should provide
libjpeg-turbo by ourself.

regards,
Alex
