Yes, sure, I do remember this perfectly well. turbo-jpeg is kind of an
exception, because it is API compatible with jpeg (so it is logical for
it to be supported in Buildroot as a provider of the jpeg API), but it
also provides its own custom API.

With the current state of things, I believe there is indeed no other
choice for TurboVNC but to use a "depends on BR2_PACKAGE_TURBO_JPEG".
Didn't we already reached this conclusion during the TurboVNC
discussion ?

I know I originally complained against this "depends on", but once
justified with the fact that TurboVNC really only works with
jpeg-turbo's specific API, I'd be OK with using this "depends on".

Best regards,

Thomas
