Hi

I need an application that can add text to photos which can be safely ignored if the display program can't handle text.  I do not want the text permanently included as part of the image.  I thought exif tags would be usable.

I'm sure there is something out there already, but I just *love* reinventing the wheel.  I installed exif-0.6.9, along with gexif-0.5, libexif-0.6.11, and libexif-gtk-0.3.5.  Included in exif is a test program which uses popt.

I have popt-1.8 and popt-devel-1.8 installed.
Unfortunately, when I try to compile the test program I get undefineds for
  poptGetContext
  poptSetOtherOptionHelp
  poptGetNextOpt
  poptPrintHelp
  poptGetArgs  and
  poptFreeContext

Is anyone using popt?  google has not provided much help.  I did find one posting indicating a ChangeLog revealed the solution, but failed to mention *which* project.  popt's log sheds no light, assuming I looked in the right place...

TIA
Jim
